Thanks, Jato. I'll check the propane line/regulator for sure. Re. furnace: Thanks for the heads up. I'll remove the mattress and plywood cover before the tech gets to it. The hourly charge ain't cheap. We've got a big fall trip, so while the fridge has an easy workaround, not so much for the heater. Cheers, Scott

I just replaced mine.... They suck to work on.... Everything I did seemed to make it worse.... In the end, new boards and all, it was better to replace it.... Just an FYI. It took 5 months to get in in, they are that backlogged.

Hey, Riotkayak: So was that the fridge or the furnace? Thanks, Scott

I just replaced mine with a Dometic CRX1110 hinged on the right like the original. I'll be doing a write-up in my mods shortly.

They are not cheap (fridge). The Dometic I recently purchased from FR last October cost just north of $ 1100. which included shipping.
