Why does my caravan fridge not work on gas?

Why does my caravan fridge not work on gas?

First, it could be down to the thermocouple, which regulates how much gas is in the fridge’s burner at any time. If this component fails, it’s time to replace it. If replacing the thermocouple doesn’t fix the issue, perhaps your pilot light’s gas line has too much air in it.

Why is my fridge in my camper not working?

The number one RV refrigerator troubleshooting tip is to make sure your coach is completely level. If your trailer, camper, or motorhome is not level, it can affect the cooling unit.
