Same thing happened to me.  Get ready... your gas valve solenoid is about to die!  Mine took a few months, but eventually it would not work at all.  You can check it by doing an OHM test across the 2 connectors on the solenoid.  Turn off fridge and unplug wires on solenoid before doing test.  It should read around 50 on a Dometic and around 85 on a Norcold.

Neither Dometic or Norcold will sell you just the solenoid coil. 

Welcome to the Escapee forums! Hope that you will become a regular here.

Just for those who may need a gas valve, here are a few sources that cost less than $200. The key is to know what valve you need or to find the proper part number.

Norcold...   The Norcold Guy         Bend Trailers            Camper ID

Dometic....   Boat & RV Accessories        Dyers RV Parts

Neither Dometic or Norcold will sell you just the solenoid coil.  They want to sell you the whole gas valve.  If you can find just the coil it is a simple swap.  Just remove the C Clip on the top and lift it off and replace.  The valve part hardly ever fails, it is the coil.

Dometic put the coil too close to the burner as that causes more heat which is probably what killed it.  I am trying to find a supplier for the coils as it would be a much cheaper replacement... the whole gas valves run around $200.  

Welcome - and thank you for this test info. The code reappeared as you predicted.  Because the offending fridge is in my spring summer fall base camp “winter capable” trailer a diagnosis/repair won’t happen till spring cause “we’s gone” 

But I will report.
