How did you determine that you have gas? Did you manually light it?

If you got air in the line (i.e., from a depleted propane tank), it may take several tries before the fridge lights. It doesn't use a whole lot of gas. When it "clicks" on and there's no gas, it shuts off. It can sometimes take quite a few tries to purge the air from the LP gas line.

I had run into a couple of different problems. First I had debris from the flue come down and land on the burner. The burner would light but would shut down after a 1 min because the debris would prevent the it from reaching the required temp. A temporary fix was to vacuum the debris out untill I could have the flue cleaned. The second was the thermo-couple itself. The thermo-couple is that ceramic looking peiece with a wire comming out that provides the spark that ignites the propane. The wire comming out of the ceramic peice had come loose and would move around sometimes lighting sometimes not. Simple fix.
