All fuses ok. The problem is with the cable that goes to the electronic ignition, it comes out of a taped up loom. There is no power to this cable. I have tried a direct feed from leisure battery to said switch and it works

Ok so thats good, then the problem lies where ever the feed joins the main DC supply.
Until you find the problem with the connection, is there another live you could take a feed off?
the igniter uses very little power.

Autohomes 1986.
Was thinking of putting a cable in direct from leisure battery to igniter. Would this need a fuse?
But my propex heater is not working either so there must be a problem with the feeds.

Feed to the fridge igniter is via the Zig unit in the cubboard section over the sink and side windows. If there isn't a Zig fitted and you just have a square hole/shelf affair, remove the two screws holding the shelf on top and above the hole and all the wiring is in there.

Right, if it's the Autohomes 'Komet' you will have two twin cables for the lights; one to the light in the high top roof, the other feeds the light over the cooker and the spot light on the rear cupboard over the bed (I think). There's a twin cable for the water pump and a twin cable for the fridge igniter. Even without a multimeter you should be able to find the fridge one by elimination.

my autohomes has a direct feed to the main battery behind the seat via a relay next to the battery ignition fed.

thats alot of power to be sending up to the zig and back.

especially as originally my charge wire/12v supply for the zig came from the fuse box and interior lamp supply!
