Help with gas/ignition on fridge

I don't think so because it still goes through the cycle of retrying every 2 min and then it times out and the check light comes on.

First, check the flame sensor. On most RV fridges it's also part of the igniter. I don't know your exact specs, but you'll want to be sure the sensor part is clean (a little scotch brite does the trick) and that it is the correct distance from the flame.

Once all of that is done try re-lighting fridge and watch the igniter while you have the cover open. If the multiple clicks go away it means the flame sensor was not sending the correct resistance back to the control board so the programming in the board assumed there was no flame and was turning off the gas.

Now, if you've done all that and the constant clicking persists.....you're probably looking at replacing the control board. I forgot which brand of fridge I had but it had the very same symptoms you describe. I cleaned and adjusted the sensor which helped for a while, but eventually the gas would not stay lit. I finally tracked it down to a problem with the control board which required replacement. It's a fairly common problem but with a fairly pricey solution. If I recall correctly, I think I searched Amazon and found a seller of refurb'd control boards.
