Subject:      Domtic Fridge Igniter problem, RM182B in my '91 Westy
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I've had this really aggravating problem with my Fridge Igniter not being energized when I select the Propane mode. Both DC and AC modes work fine but Propane mode works only when it wants to; My Fridge has a new igniter unit as well as a new ignition lead. About half of the time I go to use the Propane mode, the Igniter doesn't spark, nor does the orange light flash. I'm suspecting a ground fault or some other wiring issue. Does anyone have any first troubleshooting advice? I will be taking the front panel off of the front of the Fridge tomorrow and teasting the power to the igniter unit if I can get the multi meter probes into that small space...

Thanks in advance, Trevor Reynolds '91 Westfalia "SEN" http://westfalia-91restore.blogspot.ca
