LP leak in 3 way refrigerator

sequoia03 · 12-01-2021, 12:33 AM

2012 Jayco 1007 has a 3 way refrigerator. When I got the trailer the frige ran on LP just fine but the main regulator on the tank seemed to be faulty because I could not run 2 LP items at the same time. Like if the frige was running the heater would not lite and if I lit the stove the frige would go out. After replacing that main regulator I found that I could lite the stove and the heater at the same time. When I went to check the frige I could smell LP and hear it coming from a valve right by the ignitor switch. This valve adjusts the temp and needs to be held down while igniting but I can't find a name for it to see if I can find a new one. Anyone have any idea where I could get a new one or what it is even called?

Welcome to the Forum from Western New York State! It would help if you could post the brand and model number of your fridge, so we can steer you in the right direction to find the part.

Get some soapy water in a spray bottle and find the leak. It may be a loose or broken fitting, or possibly a failed O-ring.

I could not find any valve with that number you posted. I did find one that "kind of" looks similar on e-bay, but definitely verify it's the correct part. Possibly you old valve has a part number on it somewhere.

Thanks for the suggestions. I can’t find the model for my fridge. I think it is a N305 or N260. I think either way that part on eBay is my best bet. I found pictures of it and it looks really close. I am going to take out the old one first to get a better look at it. I figure if I get real desperate I could rebuild it.

I think you'll find that's a Norcold 323

Not the same part, OP has a gas valve that is leaking.
