Thanks again, Ian, but I'm confused. Attached is a similar photo to my last one, but this one is zoomed in on the energy selector. I can't see how to lift that up. I tried gently pushing the spindle up, but it doesn't budge. And if it did budge, I don't see how I could lift it out anyway. Or...

Thanks for that, Ian. I assume you're talking about the energy selector switch (near the left on the photo below). How do I remove the energy selector switch? It looks as if I may have to take the front white-ish horizontal strip off first, is that right? If so how? I have already removed two...

Yes, I have a link to some manuals online, thanks.

Thanks John,, but I already think I hear it light. "I then press and hold the igniter button in, and I can hear it clicking several times a second. I promptly hear it light up." It doesn't light up on every attempt though. If I leave it a while it seems to light again. Still sound like a...

We have a 2010 Bailey Pegasus 554 with a Dometic RM 8550 fridge (according to the sticker behind the vege tray). After much effort and help from several of you, I solved a problem with a stuck corroded igniter battery, thank you, and I was able to start and use the fridge successfully...

Thanks Buckman, but how do I go diectly to post #24, for example?

Thanks again DD, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, as I've been a bit busy, but... Good news: I was able to remove the housing with the battery last Saturday, by rotating the housing clockwise as you have suggested. I've brought the AAA battery + holder home to work on, and have...

I see what looks like the side of an AAA battery in a gap. See previous video and side view photo below. Rating plate says: MOD. NO. RM 8550 PROD. NO. 00921087009 photo of rating plate below.

Hi guys (apologies if I'm misgendering or mrgendering anyone), Sorry for the confusion. I had already removed the plastic button, and my problem is now removing the metal AAA battery housing. I accidentally had the wrong video link above.  Here is the correct video for where I'm up to now...

Hi DD, I am visiting the caravan for a couple of nights and have confirmed the fridge is an RM 8550 (no 'L') according to the sticker and it has a curved door. I followed your instructions 1-5 above, but when I got to 6 the metal battery case holder not rotate more than 10-20 degrees even with...

Great - thanks again DD!

This could be just what I need for this problem or someday, thanks again very much for taking the time to share your expertise, Dustydog! Is there any need to move the fridge at all to do this, because I wouldn't know how to.

Thanks again for all that, Dustydog. Does yours have a "rating plate" inside it, as described on the right hand side of page 10 of this Operating Manual? If so, where is it exactly, please? I couldn't see one when I had a quick look inside last month, but maybe I didn't look in the right...

Sounds great, thanks very much Dustydog. Good to have someone who's seen the same problem and is willing to take the time to share what they learned. I'll try that next time I'm at the caravan, which could be weeks or months from now. Re penetrating fluid, I already have the following: CRC...

Thanks again John.
