Now that is an impressive range of spares to carry.Don't you just love absorption fridges !!!
After a few years of trial and error mods with adding fans, new thermal paste, and chimney mods, our Dometic fridge/freezer had been nice and cold and freezing well for the past 18 months or so including our last outing at the Swaffham Shindig.
Parked up last night and the fridge and freezer temperatures were starting to rise.
Checked we had a flame in the morning which there was, but it looked a bit sorry for itself.
Giving the burner a thump and blowing away any detritus did not improve things.
Fortunately, we carry many spares for the "just in case" which include a new fridge burner assembly and jet.
Swapped out the old for new and bingo, we have a working fridge/freezer again.
Now onto finding out why the solar heated water is only on half power. The tank is heated by 2 x 150 watt heating elements and it looks like either one of the elements has packed up or it's not getting power to it, so it's out with the multi meter next.
Now arrived at Rocroi, so we are about to toddle off for a look around the fortified village and no doubt visiting the boulangerie.
