Joel, he mentioned that when he switched to gas, it lit. So maybe there was gas flowing to the fridge and there might be something wrong with the circuit controlling the switch?? I sure hope not -- it is expensive to replace the electronics.
But I agree with Joel that before lighting the fridge, I always run the stove for a minute to get the air out of the line. If I don't do that, and if I then try to run the fridge on gas, it takes quite a few clicks by the automatic ignition system to get the fridge up and running.
If I purge the line, though, it fires up on the second click.
