Well to wrap up my little tale of woe. I began following all the helpful tips I got on here and reading the leaks, googling, youtube, etc. Then I went out with my multimeter, proding and poking here and there. I followed advice I got somewhere to use a pencil eraser on the connection on the control board. I took off all the connections and tried to clean them off and put them back. At a point I decided just to mow the lawn, came into the house and sat down and started thinking about this thing and I had a nagging suspicion I had left the waterheater switch on in the motorhome. I went and checked and sure enough it was the red light was lit. I flipped it off and kind of as an afterthought flipped it on again. It immediatly lit then went out in a blink. I sorta freaked and turned it off. I then flipped it on again and it flashed and went off. I thought wait a minute this is how it always used to work last year. I went outside and sure enough it was roaring away. Not sure what I did to fix it but as the troubleshooting guide said. Most problems can be traced to loose, corroded or somehow bad connections. Thanks again for the tips folks, this is a good little forum.
