New 28BH - No LP alert on fridge with slide in

[drewb4]

Hi-- just wanted to verify that the fridge "should" work on LP when the slide is IN, correct? I looked under the slide and couldn't see any indication the LP lines where getting kinked or bound up, but the fridge shuts down on LP when the slide is in.

Just to confirm, does it work on LP with the slide out? The reason I ask is that we never run ours on LP with the slide out. If yours doesn't run on LP with the slide out you have a different problem.

Yes it does run on LP with the slide out. When I did the walk through at the dealer, we had the slide out and it was running off LP; I noticed when we brought the slide in that it was trying to reignite but I had assumed someone turned the propane off at the tank since we were preparing to hook up to my truck.

Technically, yes, it "should" work with the slide in. Although many people feel it's not a good idea, since it's usually when you're traveling that the slide is in, and it could be a hazard.

Thanks-- yes it wasn't for traveling, our storage facility doesn't have power and I was wanting to cool the fridge down prior to loading up.

Ah, OK. Question - what were you going to do once cooled down and loaded up? Turn off the propane, and let the fridge warm up again? Here's a thread worth reading:

Thanks that is helpful. Usually what we do is pack the Yeti and then load up the fridge when we get to the campsite when it has cooled down. I have a multi day X-country trip coming up and that plan won't work so was hoping to keep the fridge full until we drive to the next site. It will be November though so not going to be hot-- I'll keep an eye on it.
