Thetford fridge gas issue

[Newbie2021]

Couple of weeks into my new adventure and my Thetford fridge is playing up on gas. Worked ok first week now it won’t stay on. Flame ignites although the igniter keeps clicking. After about 20 seconds it goes out.

The burner may have a build up of soot/dirt on it or the jet is partially blocked.
Also check for a build up of carbon on the flame thermo-couple.
Always assuming you have gas in the bottle /tank.

Is there a fault code flashing ( Depending on model ) and is the gas flame ok at the cooker ?

 

[Terry Sweet]

we had a similar problem turned out to be a spiderweb carbonized over the thermo couple.

Any update from Newbie2021?

Exactly the same here was going to fit new pcb today. New thermocoupler didn't fix it.
If you are lucky it is just dirty at worst pcb which costs about 150 pounds and in my case can be reached through the vent.

Yes had two vans where it was dirt build up causing the problem. A good service should sort it hopefully

The burner flame looks a bit weedy to me. First thing id do is get it off and have a look. If it's working well you should be able to hear it burning when lit
