When we arrived at our destination a couple nights ago, the refer was beeping, indicating NO LP.
I checked auto-changeover valve and it was red, no matter wich way I positioned it.
I checked my tanks and one was in fact empty, but the other was not. Then I began to smell gas. Refilled the empty tank, put it back in, tried valve in both positions - no change - stayed red. Turned off the tanks and left it alone.
The next day, messed with it more and tried to light the stove. It worked. Then tried to start the generator. It would not start and the stove flame went out. Turned the stove off and the refer lit!
So, I am getting enough pressure to use the stove and refer now, but not the generator. And if I have either tank on, I smell gas at both locations.
I'm thinking I have a bad regulator on the door side and it's venting gas and there must be a regulator built into the off door side auto-changeover valve and I feel it may be defective too.
Anyway, got some parts on the way, so hope to start changing them out later this week until I figure out where the failure point(s) is(are).
