SOURCE: FRIDGE WILL NOT IGNITE IN GAS MODE
The part you are looking for is the thermo couple. It senses the heat from the flame and holds the gas valve open. The clicking will try three times and then go into lock out. You then will need to reset on the front of the fridge. When installing the thermo couple do not over tighten.

Ron;
Check the burner assembly. 1 screw, remove the sheet metal cover and clean it. The burner collects rust. This is the likely. Other issues would be the gas pressure usually checked with a manometer. Should 11" of water column. If your furnace works good then the gas pressure is probably ok. Also could have a faulty ignitor which sends a miliamp signal back to the circuit board. Check the burner first, after that leave the cover off and turn the fridge on. Watch the ingnitor attempt to lite the burner. Be sure the spark is going to the burner and not shorting out on the sheet metal it is mounted in. If it is shorting to the frame the ignitor needs replacing.
Thanks for using Fixya

SOURCE: My dometic 2652 runs is not cooling on gas or
Is there a yellow powder substance on the coils, heating tube or anywhere towards the bottom? If so, you have a leak. The best thing to do is:
1-Find a replacement unit online( ebay is a good place to start)
2-unhook electric line and gas line from the access panel
3-remove the refrigerator from the inside and place doors down(its heavy and you will probably need another person to help)
4-remove cooling unit from back of refridgerator
5-make sure you have enough thermo-mastik for the unit/coil contacts
6-replace cooling unit and hook up everything in reverse
7-turn on and let it cool for a few hours. My unit stays below 32F and works great.
Found the first one listed on ebay just now for $399.00 with a five (5) year warranty.

It could be as simple as a blown fuse at the fridge. Also check to make sure you have turned on the electric switch that allows the fridge to run on AC. Note, you can only operate the fridge on EITHER gas OR electric, but not both sources at the same time, thus, you have to turn off the gas switch before you can run on electric.
When this unit is running on electricity, it has to have the thermostat set for it to run.
Here's a link to the Dometic manual for your model.

Just follow the steps for running on electric and you should be OK.
Hope this helps.

ae359t is right replace the board, its not the cooling unit itself nor does it need to be turned over upside down, you only mention the controls are wacky, get the bottom board for the $99 price, if that does not fix the unit replace the upper eyebrow board, very seldon do upper boards go out.
