Norcold Fridge on Propane

ktsame

I have a 2018 320S and i’m having trouble starting the Norcold refrigerator on propane. The refrigerator has an igniter. I can start it manually by taking the panel off the side of the trailer and lighting it with a lighter when a second person is in the trailer pushing the gas dial. Has any one replaced the igniter? I know they don’t make these refrigerators anymore and parts are hard to find. If there is a replacement part are there instructions on how to install the igniter? Thanks in advance for any advice.

If I'm not mistaken your fridge has the manual igniter that needs to be pushed a few times in quick succession (as opposed to older fridges that have an electronic igniter). These igniters are used in many applications and readily available for a few dollars. Installation should be straightforward but might require to remove to the fridge although it might be possible to replace the electrode through the vent opening. You need to remove the stove to get to the top of the fridge.

@ktsame, I no longer have the N180 refrigerator (I upgraded to an Isotherm), but I have attached my notes that I put together, or collected from the Forum. Maybe you will find some helpful info in them.
