If the Dometic ice maker is over-filling or under-filling during operation, the ice maker water supply likely needs adjustment.
Why is my Dometic DM2882 Refrigerator light on but not cooling?
If your Dometic Refrigerator isn't operating but the interior light is on, the issue might stem from a few potential causes. Check if the mode or a switch is set incorrectly. It's also possible that the DC voltage is too low or absent. The thermistor might not be operating within the proper temperature range. Another potential cause is that the communication wire harness has lost continuity or is shorted to ground. Lastly, there might be a short or a failed circuit in the lower control module.
Why Dometic DM2882 Refrigerator works on electric but not gas?
If your Dometic Refrigerator operates in electric mode but not in gas mode, several issues could be the cause. First, check if the mode or a switch is set incorrectly. The gas pressure might be too low or absent. Ensure the knob on the gas valve hasn't been turned to the off or closed position. Altitude might be affecting the refrigerator's operation in gas mode. The re-igniter might not be creating a spark, or the resistance on the gas valve solenoid might be out of specification. The orifice could be blocked or incorrectly sized. For older Americana models, the thermocouple might be defective. The burner could be blocked, the wiring might be faulty, shorted, or miswired, or there could be a short or a failed circuit in the lower control module.
Why is my Dometic DM2882 freezing food?
If the fresh food compartment in your Dometic Refrigerator is freezing, it could be because the thermistor is not operating within the proper temperature range, or there is a short or a failed circuit in the lower control module.
Why is my Dometic Refrigerator not cooling well on gas?
If your Dometic Refrigerator operates in gas mode but does not cool properly, the flue baffle is likely out of place or damaged.
Why is my Dometic Refrigerator not cold enough?
If your Dometic Refrigerator or freezer isn't getting cold enough, several factors could be at play. Improper installation might have caused an imbalance in the airflow around the refrigerator. The fan switch could be defective. Ensure the refrigerator level is within tolerance. A warped door could also be the cause. For RM1350 models, the relay might be defective, or the flapper guide might need adjustment. Additionally, the thermistor might not be operating within the proper temperature range, or there could be a short or failed circuit in the lower control module.
Why does my Dometic Refrigerator smell like ammonia?
If there is a strong smell of ammonia coming from your Dometic Refrigerator, the cooling unit is likely defective.
Why is my Dometic Refrigerator making a gurgling noise?
If you hear a loud gurgling noise coming from the cooling unit of your Dometic Refrigerator, the cooling unit is likely defective.
Why are the lights off on my Dometic Refrigerator panel?
If the panel lights on your Dometic Refrigerator do not turn on, the DC voltage might be too low or absent. The upper control module could be defective, or the communication wire harness might have lost continuity or is shorted to ground.
Why is my Dometic Refrigerator ice maker not working?
If your Dometic ice maker isn't producing ice, it could be due to several reasons. The freezer might not be at the required temperature. The AC voltage might be too low or absent. For RM1350 models, the relay could be defective. Also, the water valve might be defective.
