Hi, I’ve recently bought a VW T25 which has a 3 way Electrolux fridge inside. The 12v and 22OV work well, and the pilot light ingnited easily and cooled a little but would go below 15degrees (freezer part went much colder). I removed the unit, cleaned the flu, the jets, turned the unit (it gurgled) and did everything I could read about fixing the problem. Bought a spare gas bottle inside my house and relit it …. Bingo, it was 5 degrees within 4 hours I was pretty chuffed to say the least. Just put it back inside the van …. And the bloody thing wasn’t cooling down again!!! So, I’ve just removed the little plastic holed flu cover on the outside of the van as I felt it was possibly restricting the heat loss (it was siting pretty flush to the external grate) and it’s dropped to 10 degree over night). This is better but still not great. What else could I try ??? The only other variable that I can think of is that I used a different gas bottle and gas pipe whilst inside the house when it dropped to 5 degrees quickly. Surely that wouldn’t make a difference Any suggestions greatly appreciated…. Thank you x
