No gas to cook top

Kids are camped at Canyonlands NP at 5400 feet. New Escape RV. Gas to all other appliances except Dometic two burner cook top. It was working just a day ago at lower elevation. Is altitude really the issue or can there be something else. Do piezo wires have to be connected (I assume they are) for gas to flow? Propane tanks are full.

    Dometic says it is an altitude issue! Everything else on gas works fine! Is there a fix. Dometic offers nothing.

    No, the piezo assembly will not stop the gas flow.

    Use a match. Worry about it later. Just go have fun.

    When turning the stove to light are you holding the knob down/in and pressing the striker?
