Norcold fridge won't light on Gas setting

[Sinnettc]

Went through everything except the hot water heater in our new-to-us TT this weekend. Norcold fridge runs fine on 110 but I only managed to get it to fire off on gas once, and that was after going through the Off/Gas cycle 4 or 5 times. Today it wouldn't light a fire at all.

Is there anything adjustable behind the external access door/vent or am I going to have to run it over to the RV repair guys to beat it into submission?

You probably have a minor problem with the spark ignition. The ignighter might be shorted to ground, or the flame sensor is not working right.

Try lighting it with a BBQ lighter. See if the flame stays on or not.

If that fails, or it stays lit for a few seconds then goes off, you probably will need to take it someplace.

Thanks for that link. I did search the forums for Norcold but apparently didn't get the right keywords.

Yes, there is a maintenance routine for the fridge burner you can do yourself. There have been several threads on this topic with pictures to help (try the Search) and you can read the Norcold instruction manual on line with the details too.
