HI Bag-dude! We have a 21 as shown in our Avatar. So stock fridge for a Gen 1 21 is the Domestic 6.7; either the RML8555 or the replacement RMD8555. Capich?

The correct spelling would be....."ca-peesh."

That's what I love about this forum ... everyone strives for accurate information.
(Seriously, I do appreciate that aspect of this group.)

Okay. So, I have this question.
You can check my avatar and search my profile.
Guess what my question is.

Jill, Do you recall the screw head size? Perhaps a #2?

Most everything on the Escape is a #2 or a #3. I haven't totally disassembled mine yet but I do not recall encountering any #1s or #4s.

Do you have your sizes off by one, Carl?
By far the most common is a #2 with the red handle, followed by #1 with the green handle. You have to get into real large screw sizes for a #3 black handle, or very small screws use a #0 with a yellow handle. There is a #4 and a #00 but I have never had need for them, but most of my use for these screwdrivers is in construction, electrical and the such.
At work I carry 3 bits in my pocket that cover just about any situation, a #1 and #2 Robertson, and a #2 Phillips (due to our American product influence).

You're probably right, Jim. I don't have the screwdrivers; I use the tips in a magnetic handle. I know there are only two sizes I have ever used in the Escape. Thought they were 2 and 3 but I guess they were 1 and 2. If that's the case, I would say the majority of fasteners on the Escape are 2, with the occasional #1. I definitely stand corrected!

Canadians are so nice. I needed a Robertson when I was at Niagara Wine Escape. I went towards the Falls and stopped at an antique shop in town. The owner apologized that there was no longer a hardware store in town. He offered to let me borrow a driver. Then, when he learned I wanted one for my toolbox, sold me one (red handle) out of his tool box for $2 CA.
I've used it numerous times since.

Nothing at all beyond the heater install. I have had my 4 yo grandson here all week, tried to fit in a few days at work, and have had no time. I have drawn up some cabinet plan ideas though.

Hi all, I'm hoping to tap into the collective knowledge of the group in helping us troubleshoot our fridge...
We just got our 2012 17B (Harvey) this summer, so still getting familiar with it. While out camping locally last weekend our Dometic RM2354 fridge decided to stop turning on. At first it would tick, tick, tick... and then light a small pilot flame, but no Whoosh like normal when it fires up the fridge. It would then error-out on the fridge control panel after running the "pilot" for a bit. That cycle went on for a while. We turned it off and on numerous times (as well as flipping between battery and propane power) hoping that it would sort itself out. Eventually the "pilot" flame stopped lighting and just the ticking would continue.
Note that it had worked perfectly fine the other 3 times we have been out in it, and propane is getting to the stove and furnace just fine. Also, plenty of charge in battery.
Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

The orifice/burner could just be dirty. Cleaning it is where I'd start. You do have propane, right?

Thanks @padlin, I will clean everything up in the fridge-back compartment. I have never had an RV before, so am a total newby. Will try to do some searching to find a pdf manual for the fridge that identifies components, so I can begin to understand how the system works.
Yes, lots of propane, hence the furnace and stove working fine.
