Norcold 1200. Cleaned LP Orifice Now It Will Not Light

My Fridge worked so-so on LP so I decided it was time to clean the Orifice all went well (I guess)... Now it won't light......

I turned on inside and watched to make sure it showed LP and then went outside and I could hear it "clicking" no start.. So I figured it had to purge the LP line. I did that several times with no lighting. So I took the drip pan off and the burner cover. Tried to start it again and I saw it lit, but it continued to click as if trying to light as soon as it quit clicking the flame shut off. Tried several times, a couple times it lit and all I heard was a Whoosh sound that to me sounded like it was lighting gas that was up in the Baffle Tube.

No I did not stick anything in the Orifice just soaked it in 91% alcohol...

Gezzzzzzz it's always something ...... Thanks LeeB
