    External propane valve

    There is an external propane connection at the rear of my 21RBSS for a grille or whatever. When I connect my grille and open the shutoff valve, gas flows, but has no pressure. Not enough to cook. The grille is fine using other hookups, so it's not the grille. Has anyone seen this or have an...

    External LP connection

    There is an external propane connector for a gas grille or whatever on my 21RBSS. When I hook up a grille and open the shutoff valve, gas flows, but not enough pressure to even heat the grille to cook. Its seems weird, so I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this, and what's the deal?

    Furrion Oven Won't Light

    Hi all, I looked at different posts on other people who had Furrion problems and found some useful information. My issue has been that when I press down the igniter, the igniter continues to click and won't turn off. This is regardless if I hold it down for 15 seconds or a minute. After...

    First time

    Using our 5th wheel for the first time and can’t get the propane to flow, is there a pilot light that needs to be lit?

    Propane Pigtail

    Replaced the propane pigtail on the door side of my Big Horn last fall trying to determine why the furnace would not disperse any heat when on that propane tank. On the off-door side, and on that propane tank, the furnace worked fine. So followed other owner's recommendations and replaced the...

    Propane Flow Problem

    OK Heartlanders, another puzzle to solve. DW told me the furnace was on but blowing cold air. Well, just switched tanks a couple of days ago (we always keep one full and manually turn lever when one is empty). Up until today, the furnace was working fine with that door side tank. Looked at...

    Bighorn 3750 heating with Propane issues

    The bathroom gets really hot. The master bedroom a little. Living room a little and the kitchen vent NOTHING. I looked at the heater and it's very hard to get to first off but there are 2 flex pipes coming out of the top that seamed crimped. I asked them to fix this since I'm the second owner...

    Norcold 412.3UL - LP won't stay lit

    My MPG 183 has the Norcold 412.3UL. It it runs fine until I switch it to LP. The gas valve opens, the igniter sparks, the flame lights but the igniter keeps sparking away for a few more seconds and then the flame goes out and the fridge display shows "F". I've tried cleaning the burner...

    Baffled! Propane not working at Hot water tank or stove but furnace & fridge work

    We have a 2017 Trail Runner 27RKS. We are half way to a 2 month trip in Florida and last week started having problems with the propane that has me totally baffled. Here is the sequence of the appliances attached to 2 30# LP tanks. Both are about 3/4 full. First on the run is the furnace, it...

    Going from 20# LP tanks to 30# LP tanks

    Hi everyone, new to RVing about 5 months now. I work away from home and was tired of throwing my money away on hotels and apartments, so I picked up a 2016 Wilderness 3150DS. I am currently in Dallas Tx and it's been getting pretty cold. Going through 2 20# tanks about every 4 to 5 days wih...

    Propane leaking?

    I have two tanks with auto switch and both tanks have a gauge that roughly tells you how much gas is left. When I open the tank valves the gauges go up to indicate pressure. When I close the tank valves the gauges slowly drop to zero over 10-15 minutes. This takes place without starting or...

    Smoke when using Propane Hot Water

    The other day my wife switched on the gas for the hot water heater due to low voltage problems at the park preventing us from using electric. Later that day we saw the attached picture. I have not turned it back on again to see if it happens again (will probably try that this weekend). But...

    Propane Connection

    I noticed that our Sundance has a quick disconnect propane fitting next to the outside steps. I would like to use this to connect to our portable grill that is now using the small 1 lb. bottles. What kind of hose and/or adapter do I need in order to do this? Thanks!

    Traveling with LP tanks open - The debate, the risks...

    Like many, for my convenience, I travel with my LP tanks (at least 1) in the open position in order to power my refer. For me, on long days (400-600 miles), my refer warms up to the 50s if I am not cooling it. Not good. Of course, the risk is a fire hazard should you have a propane leak and...

    Propane quick disconnect...

    Alright I found myself in a pickle. Currently I'm carrying a 20lb bottle for my Weber Q200. However I have a door-side quick disconnect, that I could plug into. Problem is the quick disconnect is on the low pressure side of the rigs regulator and the Q200 has a regulator. Double regulating...

    Propane Valve Question

    Hello everyone. Need some help understanding the Propane valve operation. This is a picture of the valve in my new 3914. Yes, I'm a newbie! My dealer briefly mentioned that this valve allows me to select which propane tank I draw from, or to mix the tanks and draw from both simultaneously. He...

    outside propane heater/fire thing-a-ma-jig

    I am so cold-blooded, but at the same time love to spend time outside. This time of the year, even in California, (where we are now), it gets chilly at night. I would be so happy to find something to make the night warmer (at least for a couple of hours after the sun has gone down). I want...

    Propane detector?

    Still getting to know my way around the 2011 3450TS, does this unit have a propane leak dector in it. Our old rv had a hardwired one in the kick panel under the oven. I haven't found one yet on this unit, anyone know?

    21fbs propane tanks

    I was wondering if there is an indication as to when the propane tanks are getting low. On the duel tanks, do they automatically switch to the other tank when one is empty or do you swap over manually. I saw a green dot on the valve area, is that some sort of indicator? Thanks for all your help!

    Question about propane tanks

    We just picked up our 2011 Grand Canyon (yay, us!) from Great Lakes RV in Elkhart, IN (yay, Rob!) and after five days of using the furnace to heat our rig while we switched over our belongings and got everything fixed we're wondering how to tell if our propane tanks go empty. Other than the...

    Propane furnace vs electric ceramic heaters

    Okey all you brains out there. Which is more economical to use for heating during the cold nights in Texas and points south in the winter, propane furnace or those little ceramic heaters? Just wondering which is the best way to go. Or, would I do better with a "Big Buddy" propane heater? May...

    Where do I get this propane fitting?

    I have a 2010 Sundance 3200RE, and beside my entry door under the skirting is a quick connect for a gas grill. My unit didn't come with the male fitting for it, so I bought one at Lowes and it was too long. Gas leaked out around it. I have tried to get one at local plumbing shops and I have...

    Fridge - Propane or Electric?

    The kilowatt electric costs in the RV Park where our trailer is parked are expensive. I'm thinking of switching the fridge over to propane for operation. Is there pros and cons for doing it?

    Propane line routing for BBQ/misc

    Hello all, I'd like to route in a receptacle so I can run my outdoor grill off the LP from the main coach tanks. I believe one option would be to get a brass T with 3 ports, and have that hooked up to the tank closest to the grill. The problem with this, will be the times that this tank runs...

    Quick Disconnects from Propane Tank

    Has anyone added quick disconnect tubing from the door side propane tank? My DW refuses to let me cook bacon or sausages in the kitchen so I will have to use a Coleman stove outside connected to the propane tank instead of one pound bottles. Would also work nice for a Weber Baby Q.

    Automatic propane bottle switch

    We have a 2010 Sundance 3200RE, which was manufactured in mid-June of this year. When one propane bottle is empty, does it automatically switch over to the other propane bottle, or do you need to manually switch it?

    Connecting to the outside propane outlet

    What do you need to do to connect the outside propane outlet to propane appliances that are designed to use with the disposable containers? We had a hose made up that connects the trailer's propane outlet to our Coleman camp stove but couldn't get it to draw from the source. (Very strange that...

    Running down the road with the propane on.

    Should the fridge be using 12 volt from the truck when we're running down the road? Ours doesn't seem to work so we've left the gas on and left the refrigeator on "gas". We're wondering if that's a safe practice?

    propane line in my wheel well??

    Hello out there, I took my wheels off to be balanced & noticed on the passenger side, front wheel area, a copper propane line enters into the wheel well, then makes a 90 bend up to the stove / oven. The only protection from a rock or blowout is a covering of plastic wire loom. I was surprised...

    Propane fitting outside?

    We just got a new 2010 3200RE and I have noticed that there is a quick connect fitting just to the right of the entry steps. It is down by the frame and has a 1/4 turn shut off on it. I would like to know if this is a remote conection for a grill or is it made for some thign else??

    2010 Propane bottles too big?

    We purchase a 2010 3300RLB and tonight we were flushing it out and realized that the propane bottles are too big which makes the outside door buckle and has sprung the the door.

    Checking the propane level in tanks

    I have the OEM tanks in my new 3055RL and would like to know the level of fuel in each of the two tanks. I remember watching my Dad pour hot water on the tanks to find out fuel levels. Is that the best way to do it??

    Propane Gas Line Leak
