Unhappy Propane not working

Hi all, We are new to the forum and just purchased a 2014 25' Flying Cloud.

Our stove, fridge, and water heater are not getting LPG.

We have tried:

1. Turning the LPG off and appliances off, waiting for a few minutes, turning gas back on SLOWLY, waiting, turning stove on, try lighting, then we get nothing. We have tried all that about 10 times.

2. Visually inspected all the gas lines and fittings and do not see anything out of sorts.

3. Applied a magnetic LPG tank indicator on the side of the tanks, which indicate that they're full.

4. We purchased a new regulator, which worked ONCE then stopped working.

Anything else we could try? Please be specific as we're still learning the ropes Thank you!

Monitoring this one. Same thing here on an FB27. Have been bleeding the line at the stove for 20 min. No flow.

Turn the propane off at the tanks. Disconnect the tanks. Turn on all the propane appliances. Turn the appliances off. Connect the tanks, turn on the propane. Start the stove and see if it works.

This sounds to me like the anti-leak check valve in the propane tank is activating. Either because there's a real leak in the system, or perhaps an issue of the check valve itself.

Try using another propane tank?

Try cracking the propane valve open just a bit so it doesn't trigger the leak valve and see if you get gas at the burners? If opening it further causes it to trip the valve, I believe you have a real leak somewhere.

The OPD may be stuck...

Remove the tanks turn 'em up-side down, bang 'em to the left, bang 'em to the right, do the hokey pokey and secure with 'em real tite.

Thanks all! We got it working. After testing everything, it turns out we needed a new regulator.
