We have had that before with our 1200. I cleaned the burner tube with low pressure compressed air. Lots of crap blew out. It has worked fine since.

X2 on burner tube. On a camping trip with no pedestal my fridge wouldn't light. So I pulled the cover and used my mouth th blow out as much as I could until I heard the "woof" of the propane igniting. Worked all weekend just fine, used the compressor after I got home to get it cleaned out better

I can't even find the burner tube.

It's the tube where the flame is. There is a small opening with a round cover, flip the cover to one side and use canned air to blow out the area. If lots of soot comes out, you have done it correctly.

I just had that happen to me; There's a couple of good pictures here. I used a wire brush and vacuum to clean the burner area. I didn't take the orifice out of the fridge.

Be careful to maintain the gap between the ignitor tip and the burner tube. That distance is critical as the control board makes use of the impedance between the probe tip and the tube, which is essentially grounded, to determine the presence of flame. The flame ionizes the air in that gap, and if the gap is too large, it will see that as a flame failure.

The book says that gap should be between ⅛" and 3/16".
