Clicking Noise When Opening & Closing Galley Hatch

HikinMike

I hear a loud Clicking noise each time I open and close the Galley Hatch Door. The noise appears to be coming from under the trailer. As I stooped down to listen, while I opened and closed the Hatch, I happen to see the Dome Light on the Hatch briefly flash each time I heard the Click. I have since discovered I only hear the clicking noise when plugged into Shore Power or operating off Battery Power.

Any ideas what might be going on? Thanks to All.

I understand the recent year models have a solenoid switch that shuts off the propane when you close the hatch, not on our 2017, maybe that is it.

Mine is a 2019

It is most likely the safety solenoid for propane shut off when the hatch is closed, look for a small wire on the left strut for the hatch, or if you feel like crawling under its on the inside of the rear most cross frame slightly to the right of center. It energizes the solenoid (read slow battery drain) when the hatch is open. My 2020 has it and I'm pretty sure the 19s had it as well.

Thanks. That appears to be the issue. CampHub linked me to another thread showing this as well.

I was at work before, here's a pic that shows the switch.
