Randy, do you have these links?

You probably know this but the button with the pointing hand is the one you
hold in to light the pilot light.

The fan I have in my fridge (Fridge Mate) is driven by a couple "D" cells.
The link is below. You can likely get one at a large hardware store or RV
type retail store locally.
