Is there somewhere in Mulege I can get my propane fridge worked on? Or someone that could come out to santispac and work on it? Thanks

RichnLinda I work on refrigerators and air conditioners. can you tell me what it is or is not doing?

Hi Bruce, the freezer works fine. The fridge is quite warm. We have taken it out and turned it upside down and shook it around to burp it. Didn't help. It's a Sanyo, don't know how old. I have of course defrosted it.

DID IT HAPEN ALL AT ONCE OR GRADULY GET WORMER?

Worms

Depending on the type of Worms it has been infested by, a de-wormer may be available.

It has always been too warm since we've been here. Feb. 1st. Has just started to get warmer. We understand the folks that had it before us said it was getting to cold and freezing things. We are wondering if he didn't try to fix it before we moved in and just did something to screw it up.

dose it have a temp control knob?

Lindalou - 3-31-2006 at 04:34 PM

It does, but does not seem to be connected to anything. The guy that used to own this set it up different. In fact the buttons that say electric gas and off are on off and changing them doesn't make any difference. We can feel from the pipes behind that the gas is getting to the freezer and the fridge. The fridge pipes are not as hot as the freezer

probably the problem is in the control. I will need to look at it to be sure.

u2u me with the directions of how to get to your house and I will try to get out there sat. or sun. if that is OK

This time of year the refrigerator part of the unit should be nice and cold, that is unless there is a problem.

A minor problem may be the exhaust pipe needs to be cleaned out.

Another problem might be the regulator on your tank is maladjusted. It should be adjusted to 11"wc.

The big problem, it may have a bad perculator tube and is not getting hot enough to heat the solution to a sufficient temperature to cool the lower part.

The orfice at the burner may be dirty or the flame tube may be full of lint or cat/dog hair.

The biggest problem, it may be low on solution and need to be recharged.
