Can't get heater or fridge to light?

I have a 79 sunrader and can't get the fridge or the heater to light, I see the spark on both but seems like it's not getting gas? Water heater and stove work great, btw so i have gas pressure. Is there some service I can preform on the fridge gas lighter area to clean out some possible 30 years of dust? Can I rebuild/ repair the valve for the heater if that indeed is the problem? Heading to mojave for thanks giving and would love to not freeze to death....

Thanks!

The fridge will build up carbon on the thermocouple tip by the igniter pull the little cover off and have a look. The heater has a bunch of fail safe gadgets that will not allow the gas valve to open until they are meet one of witch is the fan flow switch try it plugged in and see if that works, if it does it's a weak battery maybe needing nothing more then a good charge.
