Took my motorcoach to the shop for some maintenace and had the LP tank filled while it was their. They kept the unit for about two weeks and had shut the master power switch off while it was there. When I got the unit home I fired the heaters up (LP gas) and let them run for about 30 minutes while I was doing some cleaning inside the unit. When I turned the units off about 8 hours later the LP sensor started sounding. Gas has been shut off and I cannot figure out why the sensor is sounding. There is no LP smell in the motor coach at all. I can reset the LP sensor and it will stay off for about 15 minutes and activate again. Am I not reset the unit properly, I have not idea. I am hitting the reset button and it stops. Any thoughts on what could be happening to make the sensor activated. Anode is not the word.

LP detector s have a 5 to 6 year lifespan. Your's might have met it's demise. Ours did the same.

It is a CCI LP Sensor Model 7773. I know they are out of business. Any thoughts on replacement?

Give the American Coach people a call, or email customer service rep Debbra Merrit (debbra.merritt@fleetwoodrv.com). They'll probably be able to help.

Be sure to have you have your FIN (Fleetwood Identification Number) handy. It should be on the yellow sticker next to the driver's chair if you can't find it elsewhere.

Thanks Jay. I took the unit out, laid in the house for a while, took a blow dryer to it and then reinstalled. So far it has not activated.

As to the Fleetwood folks, I have used them in the past and they are very helpful.

Hope you folks have a safe and Merry Christmas.
