A couple of months ago (in August to be exact) I mentioned that I had had a fire behind my Fridge (started when I was trying to ignite it), which I then immeadiately put out using my (halon) fire extingusher. Well, I finally got around to pulling the fridge to assess the damage. It's incredibly minimal. There was no sorching of the cabinets, and nothing else, EXCEPT for the igniter cable itself and the copper heat sensor line (which has some white ash on it, but I suspect is otherwise fine.) . This seems surprisingly lucky to me. I had been trying to ignite the fridge, started seeing black smoke come up from behind the stove, and when I glanced down behind it via the vent at the back, I had seen flames. So I definitely need a new igniter (I'm not going to risk wrapping this up in tape as a bandaid). Is this something I can pick up at an RV store (special order no doubt)?
