The green light is triggered by the electrical conductivity of
the propane flame ( flames are a plasma with high electrical
conductivity). If the green light is one without a flame then
something else is completing the circuit. That usually is soot?
buildup on the igniter ( the ceramic insulator withethe spark
electrode protruding from it). Check the ceramic and clean it and
see if that helps. If not- then it is a failure in the relighter.?

Hi,
I'm facing a MAJOR problem with my Norcold 3163 fridge and I
really need your hefp. My fridge suddenly stopped working on gas
!!! When I push on the gas selector in the front of the mainboard,
the GREEN light shows up without me touching the safety valve RED
button and it stays lit that way without hearing a 'poof' sound
from the burner showing me that the burner would be on ! There is
no flame in the burner at all. It's like everything was dead on
the fridge, just the GREEN light that stays lit. What could it be
? It was working very well before that thing happened. I checked
the fuses on top of the fridge, especially the 1 AMP one and all
is fine. It's also working well when connected to AC (electric). I
cannot have it checked by somebody 'cause they are all booked for
a month and I need to have it repared as soon as possible....Could
it be the RELIGHTER ? What module do you think could cause such a
thing ? When I push on the RED button, there's no sound and no
flame. It's not lighting. Just the green light that shows up
without flashing (solid green). What module is responsible of
giving a flame and a click when pressing the safty valve button
(red one) ? Thanks for your help....I'm really despaired !!!
