78 Wilderness fridge gas valve????? Telefunken fridge?

Got some friends that bought an old 78 Wilderness 19 foot trailer from us about 3 years ago and now the fridge won't light on propane.

Trying to find a replacement gas valve for this old girl.

What we found was this:

Brand: AEG Telefunken

Model H 66

Serial number: 027157003

I've read that possibly Dometic may have bought them out some time ago.
We are at our wits end trying to find this silly valve.

It's sort of a two part valve. Has the shut off with a rod that runs to the face of the fridge and that connects to the actual gas valve with the thermocouple and a single wire running off the far end of it.

Any help would be much appreciated...........Old Biscuit? Any ideas man?

Thanks Old Biscuit. I was afraid of that.

They figure they might have to put a small fridge in the trailer but they didn't want to have to run a generator all the time.

They have dual 12 volt deep cycle batteries and a 100 watt solar system, but I don't think that would be enough for a 12 to 110 converter?
I'm afraid it would drain the batteries and not charge quick enough?
