I am re modeling the rear kitchen on out 22 Tab 320 CS-S and removing the rear stove and noticed there is a valve with 2 electrical wires and a T fitting under the rear of the Kitchen area, What is the electrical valve for?

It is connected to a switch on one of the struts for the rear hatch. It turns off the gas flow to the stove when the hatch is closedUltimate Toys Teardrop Camper

Awesome thanks. That's why it was warm as the hatch was open all day!

A common modification is to add an additional switch in series in that circuit to turn the gas valve off when the stove is not being used.
The solenoid valve draws ~1 amp constantly while the hatch is open. When camping off grid, this is a significant draw especially if you keep the hatch open as part of living space.

Good point, Being as I have removed the stove I think I will just un plug it.
