Decided to go away today, but when we got here the fridge won't spark for the gas ignition it's an auto system, anyone any ideas?

Keeping beer in gas locker so it's not an emergency in this weather 😁😁

Is there a fuse in the igniter system, is there anything like an auxiliary switch that powers all the rest of the electrics.
What part of the country are you in.

Batteries fully charged, new bottle of propane cooker and heating fine, working on 12v and mains this morning, will check for a fuse in the morning also if it lights using a lighter

I didn’t want to say it out loud. Hopefully it is a 7 series and easily fixed. Unfortunately I have nothing useful to add other than, that was a right idea, to keep the beer cold 👍

I thought it might be an electrical problem so pulled off all connectors and put them back, one was slightly loose, working fine now 🤞. It's a 7 series David so happy days thanks all for the help 👍👍
