BTW, ours have always worked and cooled better on gas than on electric. If we have electric, it is better because it does't use propane, so when it has been off for a while, I usually start it on gas, just to check that is works, then switch to auto mode. If it doesn't light, there could be a number of problem, rangeing if price to fix. Like a wire loose, or a wasp nest blocking the burner.
Many people will tell you that their fridge cools faster on propane, and I have always thought so also. I just checked the specs and my fridge has a 1080 BTU/hour propane burner and 175 Watt AC and DC heating elements. 1080 BTU/hour converts to 316 Watts, so it isn't surprising that the propane does get the fridge cooler faster.
