Here's my situation:

I open the valve, hold in the override button, pump air through the
combustion chamber, and spark: nothing.

*But*, if the fridge is running on AC and I immediately follow with the
above procedure, the burner gets lit....

Could my override button be non-functioning such that gas only flows when
everything's hot ? Other suggestions ? I'm baffled...
