Furnace issues

Twice in the past week, our furnace has gotten stuck on. We reset it the first time and it ran ok. However, now that we've reset it the second time, it doesn't run correctly. It'll run for about two or three minutes, then we can hear the flame cut out. It'll try to re-ignite the requisite two or three times and then it stops. I'm planning on calling the rv service guys down the interstate when they open, but was wondering if folks here might have any ideas.

If it is freezing where you are, it might be moisture in the propane. As the gas expands it cools and will freeze if there is moisture in the fuel. You can have the fuel dealer add alcohol to the tank to cure this problem.

Talked to the folks down the road and they taught us how to reset the thermostat. I can't believe it was such an easy fix.
