On the way home from eclipse trip, heard ignitor clicking on fridge. Propane flame looked fine, and cooling was fine, just acting like it was lighting
constantly. Looks like an ignitor module is separate from control board. Tips for diagnostics? Turned it on a few times since home, and same
thing...turns on seems to do its job and ignitor just fires away.

Adjust the position of the igniter. It may not be getting hot enough to register the flame.
Correct positioning should be in the manual.

It's odd because if it doesn't get flame it should quit trying.
