Un-Winterized the water supply, turned the bypass back degrees to open main flow back. Ran water for about minutes from all openings to ensure coolant is flushed. Figured that was all I needed to do. Went 1st trip of season and had no hot water. Checked fuses, breakers, propane level and...

I have owned my 2014 JayFlight since September of last year. First time owning a camper trailer. Bought it for my deer lease in the Texas Panhandle. Got to learn the hard way about how important it is to drain tanks and lines. Looks like I cracked my water heater tank, as the tank is leaking...

Hello to all, Trying to figure the hot water reset out … When I turn on the hot water switch at the panel there is a red “reset” light that comes on, there is no way to reset it from the panel so I am “assuming” there is a reset on the hot water heater…. So where is this mythical magical water...

I think I burned up my element by leaving the switch on at the heater and then draining the system for storage. The ohms climb from about 12 and my meter seems to stop working once the value pass 19. I have ordered the longer removal 1-1/2" tool, but need to also pick up an element. Are...

Our Suburban ST 60 tankless heater is throwing an E1 and E6 error. Before I turn on the hot water, the controller temp says it is 170 degrees F. After the hot water is turned on, the controller shows it has flow and the burner ignites. The temperature rises from 170 to almost 185 before it...

Hi! We have a 2022 Forester 2501TS, which is new to us. When we turn on the electric water heater, nothing happens. When we turn on the propane, the water heater runs for about 30 seconds and shuts off. It’s a Dometic dual water heater. Any comments on what might be causing these problems? I’m...

Good day. The AC portion of my Suburban Water Heater stopped functioning, although the LPG side works perfectly. The AC switch on the water heater seemed very corroded. So, I pulled it off, and it was fried on one of the two switch terminals. The trouble is, the wiring on the AC switch...

We have a 2024 Salem 24 View. Bought it about a month ago and have had a few issues but they are being addressed. Our unit has the tankless water heater with hot water on demand. The hot water keeps going cold when it's being run, which is very shocking in the shower!! Any tips or hints?

Hello, I have 2017 Forest River Wildwood. I'm noticing that my hot water is not lasting as long in the shower matter. If I guess it's not lasting long enough to even take a shower. So I'm realizing that maybe I need to clean out my hot water tank. Any any suggestions on this?

We have a 2022 Alta 1900 with a Suburban SW6DE water heater. I am wondering if it is always necessary to use the electric element of the water heater. I am wondering because we may be boondocking a bit and need to save electrical energy whenever possible. Does the element serve as a booster...
