Our new gas heater doesn't ignite or put out heat. The fan/blower works for awhile, then shuts off. An RV heater checked and said the PC board was ok. He thought it might be the thermostat but wasn't able to check it. Any suggestions?

Something else to check....if your rig has been sitting with the LP gas valve off for any time, suggest (as Bob said) make sure LP valve is ON, and light one of the burners on your stove. This will purge any air you might have in the lines. Then try your furnace.

There is a sensor activated switch on the incoming LP line on the furnace, I can't remember its name, but that was the culpret on mine when I had the same problem you seem to be having.

If you know the model number of your furnace try Bryant RV web site. Go to the service documents section. Scroll down the page and find you furnace model number. If you are lucky the service manual will be there for download. Hope this helps.

Glad you found the site useful. I discovered it a few months ago, and now have repair manuals for most of my major appliances. They sure help in the trouble shooting area. I have also ordered a few small items from them and found they a very competitive. The owner (Chris Bryant) is active on another forum, and has been very helpful through email.
