Thetford Fridge powerboard

[j1mbo5]

Hi there all.
New to this forum and hoping someone out there can help me out or point me in the right direction.
I have a issue with my thetford fridge powerboard pt no 691137.
The varisistor has blown and wondered if anyone knows the pt no or resistance info on this part.
Has anyone repaired this or knows who may be able to?
I have attached some photos of the part if it helps
Kind regards
James

It would normally blow for a reason and if you simply replace it, it may blow again.

It blew from a power surge from a generator. I had someone who deals in electronic look at it and tested other components on the board and said all other bits seem to be fine..
The component as mentioned has blown the details away and need to know the resistance data etc to replace it.

Have you asked Thetford?

I contacted a registered thetford dealership and repair centre. They just wanted me to purchase a new fridge and weren't particularly helpful in trying to repair or source the part in question.

You need to contact Thetford themselves and not a dealer that is not really interested. We had an issue with a roasting pan that had an extremely sharp edge and replaced free of charge.

On another occasions there was an issue with hob grid that kept coming loose. Thetford sent us better rubber connections to hold the grid in place during transport.

They seem quite helpful so why not try them direct?
