either of the above is found, replace the electrode. The spark gap must be set at three sixteenths (3/16") of an inch and tip of electrode above the slots in the burner.

If igniter (see Sec. 5.5A or B) and high voltage cable (see Sec. 5.6A or B) are good and there is no spark at the tip of the electrode, replace the electrode.

5.12 CLIMATE CONTROL HEATER

The climate control is a switch operated DC electric heater. Its primary function is to warm the frame of the refrigerator during high temperature/high humidity conditions. This prevents the formation of condensation on the metal frame.

To check the switch, disconnect the wires and do a continuity check. In the OFF position, there should be no continuity. In the ON position, there should be a continuity reading.

To check the heater itself, do an ohms resistance reading on the heater wire by using a properly cali- brated ohm meter. The proper ohms reading is 34 ohms

±10%. The approximate amp draw is less than .5 (1/2) amp.

NOTE: The climate control will draw DC power continu- ously. It should be turned off when charging source is not available.

SECTION 6

LP GAS REQUIREMENTS

The LP gas pressure to the refrigerator should be 11 inches water column with half of all BTU's of the RV turned on. With all other appliances off, the pressure to the refrigerator should not exceed 12 inches water column. To check the gas pressure when the refrigera- tor is operating, there is a pressure test port on the solenoid.
