My son took the popup camping for the first time and had a really great time, but the heater would not cycle. It stayed on and would not maintain a certain temperature. Any ideas?

Are you talking about a gas heater, or is it a heat function built into the roof air conditioner? If it is a heat setting in the air conditioner, some do not cycle for temperature control. These are either on or off with the temp knob having no effect on the heat strip. We had one like this on a popup we had. The only temp control was to partially open a window when it got too hot.

Hi There,
Sounds like your temp sate is not working. You might want to try to set it for a temp that is higher then the temp in the trailer and see if it comes on.
Hope that this helps you out some
