Refrigerator and propane
Full propane tanks. Furnace works, stove and oven work, hot water heater works. Refrigerator will not work on propane, keeps flashing error. Where do I start? It has always worked on propane before.

Frank: What error code is being flashed? Does it work on AC?

Is the igniter clicking (you should be able to hear it) and failing to fire up?

Hi Butch, The code flashes - no FL -. It is a NORCOLD 121X Series.

Code "no FL" means the burner failed to ignite (no flame). On page 30 of the Service Manual is the trouble shooting flowchart for this code. Most common is a mud dauber blockage in the burner tube. Worst case is the LP valve needs to be replaced due to a bad coil (I have seen this in water heaters a lot and I have a way to just replace the coil rather than the entire valve).
Here is the service manual if you don't already have a copy.

Frank,
Butch is probably right but just in case:
I had that error code several times too. You mentioned that stove was working but I found that I had to make sure propane was in the line 1st or I'd get the "no FL" code. I did so by lighting a burner on the stove. Then I turned the refer on, listened for the igniter. If it lit, you definitely could hear the burner outside. If not, I turned off the refer and tried it again. Normally, it would light after the 2nd try.
Mine was temperamental so I recall having to do this often when I first opened the rig.

Well I am back in business. Turned the refrigerator off, turned it back on and set mode to LP, did not light. Did the LP mode several times and it started and ran on LP. Worked it several times and LP worked every time. Set to auto and it switched over to electric just like it is suppose to. Must have had air in the line.
Thanks to all,
Frank
