Whilst at the Saltfleet Gala meet this weekend. I noticed the fridge (Dometic RML 8555) was running (burning gas) continuously. I could hear and see the burner running and feel the heat venting from the upper exhaust vent. It just never stopped.
The fridge was cooling ok, food in the freezer compartment stayed frozen, beer was cold.
If I adjusted the temperature setting the fridge got colder as I increased the setting (checked with a thermometer inside down to 2 deg C).
I disconnected the thermostat from the cooling fins, gave it a clean and put it back with no difference. The fins were not iced up, and water was collecting and draining on the water trap under the fins.
I don't remember it running, (burning gas), continuously 24/7 previously...
There are no error warnings showing on the LCD control panel.
Any suggestions, ideas etc welcomed.......
