Everything is clean and looks ok but I don't even see an ifniter. Thermocouple is good also. Propane tank is full and furnace and cook surface light.

Not many have thermo-couples! I would inspect the ignitor assembly looking for cracks in the porcelain. Inspect the high voltage cable for damage. Bad circuit board!

Soak in alcohol and then use compressed air.

Do you smell gas while it's trying to light? Depending on the answers to either of those, is where you need to look at. If you hear clicking and no gas, it's something with the gas valve solenoid or blocked line or? If you smell gas, but no clicking, it's something with the igniter or whatever triggers it. Good luck!

My fridge won’t light unless battery is over 90% even if plugged in to shore power.

No spark at the burner and I could not smell gas. Propane is full and battery is fully charged, I think. I will check that. Burner is a series of slots. I can only check when someone is here to turn it on, or switch from electric to propane at the refrigerator. Thanks everyone. dougrainer • View posts Carrolton, Texas Senior Member Joined: 06/11/2007 View Profile Offline Posted: 08/19/22 03:23pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Turn refer on AUTO, Disconnect the 120 cord behind refer. Disconnect the 12 volt supply wire from the control board for 5 seconds and reconnect. The refer will now attempt to run on LP. You do this and you do not need a 2nd person.

It worked -- it must have been a particle of dirt. 2012 Fun Finder X-139 "Boondock Style" (axle-flipped and extra insulation) 2013 Toyota Tacoma Off-Road (semi-beefy tires and components) Our trips -- pix and text About our trailer "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single list." ferndaleflyer • View posts everywhere Senior Member Joined: 03/31/2011 View Profile Offline Posted: 08/19/22 04:47pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Thanks Doug, I'll try that.
