I have the same Norcold fridge and was having the same issue. Not staying lite will traveling and recently randomly failing to relight while parked.
I removed the nozzle and soaked in carb cleaner and used compressed air to clean out. Reassembled and flame looked better than before but still had random ignition issues. Disassembled again and an inspection of the ignitor revealed a hairline crack on the porcelain.
Replaced the ignitor and reassembled burner assembly. Success
A simple replacement and cost of new ignitor was less than $20.
