    Suburban Propane Water Heater Won't Light

    Let me start by saying I have found a LOT of useful info in this section of the forum, but my situation seems to be a little different. When I go to turn on the water heater to use gas, the lighted switch comes on (see attached photo), but nothing else happens. What USED to happen is that the...

    Gas Grill less hot

    Our Suburban gas grill suddenly is significantly less hot than it was when new even when turned fully on. I am interested in ideas to troubleshoot if there is a blockage in the grill or in the line connected to our Travel Trailer's propane system.

    Water Heater Flame lingers after gas shuts off

    Hey folks, I'm new here and just bought a used Forest River Flagstaff trailer. One thing that concerns me is a small flame that persist once the water is heated and the gas shuts down. Is this normal? Seems a bit close to some of the wires above it. Is this normal? I hope the image I'm...

    Gas Furnace Vibration Noise

    So my gas furnace works great in heating up my camper however when I lay down I can hear a strong vibrations probably from the blower. When I'm standing or sitting it's pretty subtle but as soon as I lay down, even with a few pillows I feel like I'm sleeping above a night club. Is this normal...

    Door gas strut failure

    Well. I hope this might help someone. We have a 2016 Sunseeker 2400R MBS. After 4 years the entry door gas strut failed. I found the model number (200 20 inch 20 lbs) and found a new one on eBay. $12.00 plus $10.00 shipping. Put it on and oh no! The door jam connector was too large to allow the...

    Gas pistons not compressing

    I recently had to remove the gas pistons under our bed. I removed the screws holding the pistons in place and removed the them. Now to put the pistons back in place I used the same holes to screw in the brackets, simple, right. Problem is the pistons will not move, I can not depress them to...

    Gas Generator Etiquette

    We are newbies and are taking our first 3 day trip to see a city's zoo. We don't have a toad, so will go from the RV park to the zoo's parking lot in the RV. My question, is it OK to leave the gas powered generator running for the A/C while we are in the zoo, or is it bad form, lol? That is one...

    Found my water heater - is it gas/electric or just gas?

    Thanks all so much for the help on my last post, I found the water heater! I read the thread with six posts, all set to start, but the stickers inside the heater area are all worn or torn off. I attach a pic (my fifth wheel is a 2004). The black strip in the middle with two circles is labeled...

    Gas-Powered Sprinter

    I received an announcement today from my far-away (2.5 hours) Mercedes dealer describing "breaking news" ala Lester Holt. It appears they will have a gas-fueled engine available soon. Has anyone heard more, specs, plans for manufacturers to build RV's on this new platform?

    Gas can?

    I need a good gas can to bring for my generator and an easy way to store it. I heard the metal Jerry cans are good; I'm having trouble finding metal ones that look decent.. What are the best options (with links if possible?) and where is everyone storing it on a fifth wheel RV? Thanks!

    Suburban hwt gas won't light/deliver.

    Hi, apologies if I have started a new thread on a boring known issue, but I couldn't find it discussed. It's a new to me 5th wheel with Suburban hot water tank and I can't get it lit. There is gas present, right to the 90 brass elbow behind the water tank door. The stove/fridge/furnace work...

    Campground in Vegas

    Staying at circus circus RV campground. Figured I’d fill you guys in on it. 1. It’s simple, no frills. Basically a paved lot with hookups. 2. No WiFi (I know, this sucks) 3. Amazing non-stop dedicated RV lot security. They ride bikes around the lot 24x7. Awesome. Not many amenities...

    Gas stove low flame

    I have a 2012 berkshire 390 bh. Stove has a low gas flame. I can use only one burner at a tome at that is marginal. I have turned everything off, and slowly reopened the propane valve. That seemed to improve things although, when I go camping and try to use the stove, it’s back to the low flame...

    Portable Gas Griddles

    I know this has been discussed at length on here, but I did not see a product that ticked all the boxes I am looking for. For some background, we have an old Coleman 2-burner that has a round burner on the right and a long burner on the left with a rectangular grate over it. But a couple...

    So in a few weeks we head west for about 2000 miles. Have all of our stops reserved but have also selected gas stations along our routes to try to take the guesswork out. (30' MH with 4-down toad.) We're driving enough miles most days for me to want to stop at a station and then go into our...
