got my fridge fixed yesterday - and generator starter kit.
the problems I had had with my fridge not wanting to start on gas (interior light would come on, but not yellow light for ignition) - was igniter board.
for folks in west Phoenix area, I found a terrific mobile rv + auto repairman - Jeff Wood, with Palm Valley Auto and Rv.
he comes to you, and is an rv owner himself. He knows his stuff, and is very reasonable -
highly recommended. I know I have a new mechanic now, and can stop worrying about who will fix something the next time I need rv repair.
thanks again for your help - I forwarded all the repair manuals to him, and he said that they confirmed his suspicions of the igniter board as the source of the fridge problem.
