I used my Fluke meter and got 13.2v at the 12v block. Then I got 13.2v at the yellow wire going into the reignitor with the yellow wire plugged in. I could here the reignitor pulsing but no spark at the electrode. When I bought the electrode it said it was Dometic and had a Dometic model number. I wonder if it could be a fake or something like that. When I first hooked it up I got just a small spark for a short while. Then after adjusting it some it quit sparking at all. Even just trying to hold it with insulated pliers and moving it at different distances to the metal I could not get it to spark. Of coarse with gas shut off. Here is a couple of pics the way it is right now. Having trouble posting pics. Will try again after while. Thanks
When this is all over you will be the guru of Dometic igniter operation and will help others as you travel etc... I have for years. Dirty burner and electrode contamination have been nearly 100% of the troubles.
Voltages are good! Only thing left is the igniter sending a spark and the valve opening!
So you hear it snapping but not spark?
Disconnect the electrode wire from the Igniter and test again and see/listen if you hear the snapping of an arc!
If you (EDIT) hear it then the electrode wire is shorting some where between the Igniter connection and the tip of the electrode!
Will post about how to add a pic. a bit late. I do not have the linkon this computer..jhahahaaa.
