Once again there is NO PILOT flame..........the flame that lights off is the Main Flame and goes out when temps reached then relights when more cooling is needed
After period of non use on propane it may take several attempts to establish flow to fridge and for main flame to light off.
Run stove top burners on HIGH for minute or two the retry fridge.
Someone should be outside with fridge lower vent off to watch/listen if solenoid on gas valve clicks and if spark electrode clicks/clicks/clicks.
Feel gas valve when it energizes. DC power is sent to gas valve to open only for 6 seconds or so when power goes to spark electrode.
Check for any loose connections on solenoid. at control module etc.
Manual I LINKED in earlier post has some information.
