I have a 3 way fridge freezer, when on gas the igniter keeps clicking when fired up. I haven’t tried main electric yet. Does the igniter need replacing

Yes, it has a resistive flame detector. Air and non-burning gas have a very high resistance. A burning flame is conductive, so the electronics can detect a burning flame. It keeps the ignition clicking, but after some time it gives up, shuts off the gas solenoid and flashes a warning light.Does the igniter circuit have the equivalent of the flame failure but in reverse.
If the flame detector does detect a flame it keeps the ignition on
