Re: Dometic fridge igniter not working by William

Chris - I think you have the model number wrong butit sounds like you have a manually operated unit with electronic spark. First check for carbon build up on the electrode immediately above the flame. If the electrode sees resistance it thinks the flame is there and stops the igniter. If that is OK make sure the lead to the electrode is not grounded out along the path If thats OK test for 12 volts at the igniter. If you have 12 v there, unplug the electrode lead - if there is no ticking sound - bad igniter - replace it. Good luck William
