Thermostat issue

Newbie here so forgive me if I don't use correct terminology.

I have an 04 Jayco Qwest TT that I am actually living in while I finish building my house. I plan on using it to travel as well eventually, I love it so far.

Over the past couple days it has been getting cold at night so I turn the furnace on using the thermostat, this has worked fine until the last couple days. I have to set the thermostat to 90 for it to kick in, or sometimes I have to take the face plate off and jiggle some of the wires to get it to work... I am thinking that the thermostat is shot and needs to be replaced.

Here is my question, the current thermostat is an RV Comfort HP, Coleman Mach. I have been digging around on the web all morning and have yet to find this model. I have found other RV Comfrot thermostats but none of them are the HP model. From what I can tell the difference between the ones I find online and the one I have on the wall is that the unit I have has selections for gas or electric heat, and A/C. The units online just have heat, cool and off but not a choice for the heat source. Are these interchangable or do I have to find one that has the source for the heat? If I have to buy a thermostat with the choice of heat source where can I find one? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Any help you all might have would be greatly appreciated.

I believe the RVP #65659 is the HP (heat pump) model.

I have Coleman Heat Pumps 920 and use the Atwood Comfort Control System thermostat, which is a multi-zone model and can control the furnaces as well as the a/c units.
