To those few of you with a Norcold refrigerator, who may have had LP starting problems; mine gave up on cold or rainy days. Thought I'd share the results of several months of warranty headaches until the intermittent problem was finally diagnosed and fixed: apparently the igniter wire to the burner box has such light insulation, that it can short to adjacent metal; the fix was to replace with more heavily shielded cable. Since it is not safety related, Winnebago won't recall, but is fixing them individually as they turn up. I called their Owner Relations Dept., asked for a list of known defects, was told there aren't any.
