Default Stove is Clicking

Okay, I have a gas stove top with electronic spark. The refrigerator and the stove top are in the same outlet. Every time the refrigerator starts one burner on the stove sparks. So, about every 10 - 20 minutes we hear this single snap from the stove.

We're plugged into 30 amp pole power and everything is functioning just fine.

Ideas?

Check for a loose ground. This one sounds like it could be frustrating to identify.

It sounds to me like you got your hot and neutral backwards on the stove's wiring.

Stand by, that is an LPG Stove and doesn't have Electrical Wiring like the newer coaches. The newer coaches most likely have 240 Volts AC Stoves but our older rigs do not. Still check the polarity of the coach and the branch circuits.

You're right Steve, if should have either 12v or 120v to power the clicking lighter.
