All, thanks so much for all of the feedback. I now know what my issue is, and it may be yours if you have the same problem. I was at the dealer yesterday, and it's a bad "board". Quote, "the board is burnt." The dealer is requesting authorization to fix it from Forest River under warranty.

It always make me feel better when it really is somebody else's problem to fix.

The value of that warranty can't be overstated. I did not get one with my Pod, so it was live, learn and fix. Got it, use it.

Had the same problem with my water heater last month while in Utah. F/R Dealer in Helper Utah Carbon Emery replaced it free of charge. Took about an hour and we were on our way to Lake Powell

We also had the same problem so it appears that if the water heater worked on propane and suddenly stops and the DSL light stays lit, but still works on electric than it probably is a bad board (at least now you do not have to wonder what it is after all the usual checks are done and everything is fine)

A kinked gas line from when it was built was the issue on my 2017.5 Rpod 180
