   That looks to be the propane solenoid.
  The safety decice to cut the propane gas. 
  I believe it cuts tbe gas when thr galley rear door is closed.
  
  I do not have one on my 2018, which I am glad since it is a 12-volt power draw. 
  I shut off my propane at the tank when not being used.

  Interesting James!  I too, turn the gas off at the tank.  So it is a constant current draw?  That's bad, as this was pretty darn warm!  Got to be very inefficient - tossing off all that heat!  It's dark and cool out now, I just crawled under to see how warm it was...so warm you cannot keep your hand on it more than 3 or 4 seconds.   I would love to do away with this.
