From your drawing......


The Thermostat 2 / Yellow wire..........what does it connect to on coach side?
That should be the 'triggering' wire for heat from T-stat (T-stat closes sent DC via that wire to Relay)

If you jumper the 2 thermostat wires together does the furnace come on? If not there is a problem with the furnace or the wiring and or furnace. If it does come on install a separate heat thermostat and connect the 2 thermostat wires to it preferably use a digital thermostat that is powered with 2 AA batteries.

SUCCESS!!! Thanks to all who helped especially the info from old biscuit ,
Got a piece of machine wire made a hook on the end and did some blind fishing in the wall turned up the elusive white wire inside the wall by the dining room thermostat. Jumpered 12v to the white wire and after 20 or so second delay the blower came on when I disconnected the jumper the blower ran for a couple minutes then shut off. So now I knew the blower delay relay was good, had already the thermal safety and blade switch was good so figured the no ignition had to be an issue with the electrodes, gas valve or control board. Decided to check the obviouse first and found the connector that plugs into the control board had slipped half off when I reinstalled the furnace into the coach. Pushed it od tight and I jumpered again and had heat so furnace is working perfect now, got a new 12v heat only thermostat coming from ebay which I plan to mount just below the cool only thermostat in the dining area. One thing that messed me up was the instructions in the owners manual to turn the furnace on. Nowhere does it say to set thermostat to "heat" it just says "turn fan on and blower will start"
Again thanks to all!

COOL only Thermostat just doesn't have the internal switches/contacts to send DC to furnace


Furnace wiring LOOKED all intact.......hence the 'illusive' WHITE wire for HEAT
Glad you located it inside the wall.


Heat only Thermostat WILL take care of the issue
Warm RV -----GOOD!

Your thermostat looks the same as mine other than not having heat. Below is a diagram I found for the t-stat.

Also I just bought 2 Honeywell digital t-stats that I am planning on using to replace the factory ones.

Here is a couple of pages I found that talk about it.
