Dometic Fridge "Check" light

Ok. I've read of some issues about the fridge on here but not about this particular symptom. New camper, second weekend here. The fridge works fine on AC generator in auto mode. When I turn off the generator it switches back to lp fine. I hear the igniter click and I can hear the gas kick in. However, after a while I can hear the igniter continue to click as if it's trying to ignite again (although it already has ignited) This happens several times, sometimes 'it's fine and then later I get the "check" light....I've observed this several times. Could it be the thermocoupler is bad and it does not think the ignition has taken place and it eventually times out? How do I test? The battery is 12+V on the meter. Furnace works fine.

Hi Elev3100,

You didn't mention which Dometic Fridge you have, but most have direct spark ignition which doesn't use a thermocouple or pilot light.

You may have a problem with the flame sensor or control board.

If the fridge is in a slide, you may have restricted gas flow from a pinched gas line.
