Why no ignitor on RV stove?

New to us this year, Torque toyhauler in my sig.
Camper is loaded with features but the stove has no ignitor for the burners.
Oven has typical pilot light setup.
What is the reasoning behind this? Anyone?

Youโ€™d have to throw in your awesome stick shift Mega Cab though, cause I donโ€™t have on of them anymore, because the brodozer we got now would have to do the Carolina squat just to hook a 5ver!


LOL, I've been trying to convince my better half to sell everything the way the market currently is, but I haven't had much success yet....:)


Same here. If this past summer wasnโ€™t our oldestโ€™s last summer at home, I would have sold the new camper, new truck and boat and waited for the market correction.

Glad to see you found relief. :B

When your Bic wears out, check out these rechargeable USB lighters on Amazon. The igniters all pooped out on our nice kitchen stove and this was our redneck solution. I love these things.

That was my point. This thing aint no Tiffin or Airstream, but it's a long ways from entry level.
I see the options box something like this when it was ordered:
100gal FW - check
4000W genset - check
Thermostat AC - check
Glass top stove - check
LED lighting everywhere - check
optional recliners - check
Big @ss refrigerator - check
30gal onboard fuel station - check
Wet bolt shackles - check
16" alloy wheels - check
Fantastic fan - check
10gal DSI water heater - check
Optional tank flush - check
Outdoor quick connect water hose - check
Pretty much every other option except dual air conditioners and a

$10 ignitor button on stove - DELETE


This is not actually an issue, but more so just a ridiculous observation. More funny than annoying


Yup , three pages of funny on of all things an igniter , gee I hope this isnโ€™t keeping you up at night . Might want to end the stress on this , and add one .:)
