young bloke and I are out trying to fir up the old Electrolux gas fridge. Getting it lit ok while pulling out knob d for 30 seconds (or 5 minutes!) but as soon as we let knob d go she all goes out...she's level...any ideas please as we are off on our first couple of nights away this weekend
Cheers
Geoff

hi there 9 times out of 10 with it going out all the time when you realise the bnob is the thermocoupler not registering the heat, to keep it going ,, either the end of the thermocoupler is covered in crap from burner or the end of the thermocoupler has burnt of and soon as it is damaged or a hole in it the burner will not stay going,,
check inside the burner and clean end of the thermocoupler and make sure the end is ok
