New to us this year, Torque toyhauler in my sig. Camper is loaded with features but the stove has no ignitor for the burners. Oven has typical pilot light setup. What is the reasoning behind this? Anyone?

I agree that it's weird. There isn't an extra knob to spark the igniters? We've had to replace the individual igniters when they pooped out on the burners. Have you lifted the stove cover too peek and make sure?The oven bugs me. I don't know why you manually have to light the pilot instead of having an igniter.Our first toy hauler (2005 Weekend Warrior) didn't even have an oven because the factory that made some component burned down or something. I had to buy one aftermarket for my wife for Christmas a year later.I can't imagine why your stove wouldn't have them.

Lol, me neither! But I can’t make this up. Just posted because I remembered when I needed a lighter in the shop and the closest one was the bbq lighter in the camper used for the stupid stove!

We have a 2021 Coachmen Mirada and it has an igniter that will light the burners and the oven pilot.Perhaps a new feature or something on “higher end” coaches?

I have a battery one on my 2019 Rockwood.. It's for the burners. Not sure if it also does the oven, as I've never used it, except to store the cast iron pans I use..I don't really even use the stove top, except to purge the air out of the lines, and then I just use a BBQ clicker thing. When the battery is in the one on the stove and you lean against it to reach the upper cabinets, it starts sparking and such.. Anyway, not a high end unit by any means..Good luck! Mitch

$0.25 cheaper per unit to manufacture.

Glad to see you found relief. :B

When your Bic wears out, check out these rechargeable USB lighters on Amazon. The igniters all pooped out on our nice kitchen stove and this was our redneck solution. I love these things.

Grit, my trailer stove has an ignitor that works with or without shore power. Would you like to buy the trailer? :B

You’d have to throw in your awesome stick shift Mega Cab though, cause I don’t have on of them anymore, because the brodozer we got now would have to do the Carolina squat just to hook a 5ver!

LOL, I've been trying to convince my better half to sell everything the way the market currently is, but I haven't had much success yet....:)

Same here. If this past summer wasn’t our oldest’s last summer at home, I would have sold the new camper, new truck and boat and waited for the market correction.
