If the fan doesn’t turn on as soon as you set the thermostat to “heat” and raise it above ambient, there’s an electrical issue.
Just curious, if you have air conditioning, does the a/c start when the stat is set to “cool” and lowered below ambient? If not, you have a stat issue. If it does, the stat is probably good. You checked the furnace fuse and it’s good, right.
Time to go to the dealer. Good luck, let us know the solution.

The a/c works fine. It is a separate unit. I am planning to take it to the dealer this winter after camping season.

Sorry we could not help you - your camping season might be cut a few weeks shorter without a working furnace. I use an electric heater and a sleeping bag to stay warm at night.

You will have to let us know what the solution turns out to be.

Enjoy the rest of the camping season[emoji106].

I wonder if it is as simple as a wire coming off the backside of the switch?[emoji848]

That is a good point and should be easy to check. That is if you can get the thermostat off the wall easy.

I appreciate the help. I bought a small space heater and it heats up the small rv quickly. I will keep going for a bit longer.

Do you need to close a door?
In our trailer you must close the bathroom door ALL the way or the heater wont work since the location of the furnace could potentially obstruct the furnace.
The guy who did our delivery was very specific on this point and said people forget to close the door all the time then bring it back all angry.

I looked at a virtual 3d tour of a coachman 192rbs
With the location of what i think is the heater does the slide need to be OuT?

We keep the door closed. It has no affect.

Were you able to fix the issue?

We are on our first trip since last season, dealer winterized and we can’t figure out how to get the heat to work. Same issue, same trailer as yours

The thermostat was bad. I put in a new digital one and it works fine now. Thanks for all the guidance.
