Dometic Fridge - no red light = no piezo/spark?

Thanks Vic! I think I'm going to try to salvage this fridge as it's in pretty good shape - except for all the missing pieces. I saw the pic of the added manual igniter, interesting but I couldn't bear to drill a hole in this nice faceplate!

The sparkers must be the same for all fridges, so I'm going to try an earlier sparker in this one. Fan blades are bust too and need replaced. I can't quite see how the igniter/light blue ground wires are routed in your earlier pic (your pics were invaluable to me figuring this out, deeply appreciated!), but looks like they're both grounds so should be simple.

I swear 20% of people in this world want to fix up a Vanagon the moment they see one - but the other 80% want to rip parts out and throw them away and then botch as much wiring as they can. Most of the vans I'm trying to bring back to life have been scuttled harder than the Graf Spee. Frustrating!

Does anybody have a copy of the owner's manual for the 91 style refrigerator? One of my syncro campers is a 91 and I am used to the 1990 and earlier style refrigerators.
