Subject:      question before I remove the fridge
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

For the 9 years I have owned my van, I have been able to light the fridge with minimal difficulty. I am now having a problem and need some advice.

Before, when lighting the fridge, I would follow the directions and when I pushed the button for gas mode, the light would flicker, I would hold down the "flame failure safety device" and pump like crazy until the light quit flashing and I would have an operating fridge. Now, when I push the button for gas mode, the light comes on but does not flicker. Thus, it acts as if the fridge is lite when in fact it is not. Any idea what might be wrong or what is happening.

The fridge works on AC, I had it on all day yesterday and it cooled fine. I have propane because both the stove and the Propex heater work.

Thanks for any advice.
