Propane tank splitter on my motorhome

I installed a propane splitter between my main tank and the regulator. I connected an auxiliary tank to the splitter but my gas heater won’t turn on-help!

Do any of your propane appliances work ? Stove top burners ?

Propane bottles have a full flow safety shut off , opening the service valve too quickly with no back pressure it will shut the valve .
Close the service valve on the bottle and open it VERY slowly , if you hear a click from the valve , shut it and start again , when you've opened the valve without hearing the click , then try your heater.

Won't the auxiliary tank also work hooked to the disposable bottle port?
