Bambi LPG
Here are just a few reasons a furnace will not make heat.. These are low voltage as in low battery or poorly connected converter or poor connections at the dc fuses, or no LPG at the furnace. To check the furnace there is an order. Turn on all lpg devices and allow to operate for 3 minutes to check operation. Some trailers have a gas cock for every lpg device. Get a digital voltmeter and confirm battery condition. A fully charged battery ready to work will reflect 12.6 volts dc, and 12.0 is a 75% discharged battery If the blower motor can be heard turning [and s****ing] but the reed switch for airflow will not close, the unit will not make heat.. The airflow reed switch controls the gas valve. The unit must be removed to be bench checked. The unit is very easy to remove. It would be wise to remove unit to gain some insight and experience. Furnaces require very little to be removed. Stop the lpg, remove wood trim from front of unit, remove metal end of furnace, disconnect lpg line using two wrenches, reach in besides unit and find 12volt electrical plug and disconnect same, remove usually two sheet metal screws down thru open end of unit into floor, go out side and remove long single screw thru exhaust port..... Slide furnace into living area. Unit can be easily move about. Altitude differences will make some adjustments necessary but this is to burner to maximize fuel mix. while burner is lited a nice blue flame is desired. An orange flame is not a good mix and will carbon the burner. Frank
