I have looked everywhere I can think of and can not find anyone that has this relighter. Hoping someone will have one to sell. The most current part number is 633326. It has been discontinued without replacement. All the websites that "say" they have one in stock, actually do not.

Thanks for your time.

    Are you 100% sure the Relighter Module is bad?
    Poor placement of thermocouple tip in flame, dirty tip, or just bad thermocouple should be eliminated.
    Also, confirm the "interrupter" is good and has good electrical connections.

    Have you read/seen this Forum Post on Interrupter

    A google AI search:
    " how to Test the interrupter component of the thermocouple circuit on a norcold 3136 relighter wiring "
    Includes these remarks:

    😔

    You may be forced into 'creating' a solution; bypassing the Module and installing a manual piezo igniter.

    I suspect the 3136 Interrupter 'wires' are output signals for the Module logic and that the interrupter would still shut-off the gas if thermocouple voltage/current dropped out . . . but that needs to be verified to have a safe solution.

    The 3136 uses a light wave-guide from the flame to the front panel indicator so 'burner on' indication should still occur.

    Thermocouple is fine and confirmed. Interrupter is fine and confirmed. Relighter is bad and confirmed.

    There is a company "Dinosaur Electronics" that make a lot of aftermarket boards for Dometic and Norcold, however they don't have anything listed specifically for the 3136. They do have universal igniters that possibly could be adapted. Their website/documentation is absolutely horrible though.

    Edit reason: I suck at spelling.

    I'm changing out my norcold 3163; it would ignite, but not cool. If you want the igniter module you can have it, just cover shipping. PM me if you're interested.
