then you assume correct but the silicone will eat your steel

fridge won't start...on gas I presume.

what model is it?

propex ...what thermostat is it ...Mechanical or electronic?

iots a propex 1600 red box with a propex electic dial by the z3ig unit

[kevtherev]

I have the red box propex

propex electic dial

??

I assume you mean the thermostat
this dial is it black...does it have any lights on it...or lettering?

or is it cream coloured..with an on/off switch
...** the operating instructions are in the downloads section for the propex compact (1600)**



and the fridge model?

RM212, RM120, RM122?

electronic ignition or piezo?

Propex first
It's a small black box(thermostat) with a dial numbered 1-6(i think) on/off switch and a red and a green led
casing says "propex heating"
_____________________________________
Fridge is a rm 212f

it has a rocker switch then when you turn it you can hear a constant spark

now i opened up the gas(fairly full bottle) hit the switch for maybe 20 seconds but no flame

all switches on right hand side were set to off and gas dial to 5

cheers

just to be sure did you push in the dial on the left with it set to 3 as it was clicking?

Aw is electric propex bad?

no not at all ...it just means the thermostat is better at controlling the interior temp.

find the flue for the fridge and after trying to start it, go to it, and see if you can smell gas.
if you can't... check the bottle is turned on and the gas tap in the van if you have one.
to check the safety by pass valve works on the fridge (knob you push in)

blow into the pipe and get someone to push the valve in (on 3) you should be able to blow through

OK?

[gti mad man]

will check the fridge tom thanks mate

for propex would i be right in saying turn gas and lesuire battery on then just put switch on thermostat to "on and it should fire up then get green led"?
