Hmmmmmm....you have 12volts, you have gas, and you have ignition. Then by God it should work. What soliniods are you refering to? The only two I can think of is the master switch for the rv and the one for the chassis. Mine are located (switch) right by the door. If the "house" aint turned on then nothing works. Is that the one you are talking about???

Maybe there is an oil trap blocking some of the gas lines.

The regulator at the tank works fine, gas flows from there to all of the appliances. The stove top works fine. the appliances have a solinoid/regulator of their own. The one for the fridge is behind the panel inside the RV (it gets gas right up to the input side). For whatever reason, it is not getting the signal to open. It's driving me nuts, but I am getting closer I guess. The hot water heater has the same exact issue.

AHHHH the gas valve! The word solinoid threw me off. Well lets see, the fridge gas valve operates off of the board. On a call for cool, it will energize the ignition source and turn on the gas. Pull the plug off the gas valve that comes from the board and ohm out the valve. Then check for 12 volts coming from the board. If you have 12 coming from the board then the valve may be bad.
