First, make sure you have 12VDC to the control board. Regardless of the source of power to the fridge, most RV units require 12VDC to run.
Also, purge the gas lines by running a stove burner for a while.
The sparking is caused by a piezoelectric crystal that shoots a spark across an air gap. If the gap is too large, no spark.
Can you light the burner with a bbq lighter? If so, then the control board and gas path are clear and the sparker is the only problem.
