Propane issues

Hey there folks.

We are living in our fifth wheel while we build our home. Our local gas company came out and put a 500 gallon propane tank in and hooked it all up. Now our stove won’t light OR when it does it only stays lit for a few seconds before burning out. I’ve checked the valve and it’s open (underneath the camper) so I don’t know what’s going on.

I will say generally in the camper I can smell the propane when turning on burners. Now I can’t smell anything and it’s as if no propane is getting through.

The guy who installed it wasn’t helpful at all. Basically said we’d need to have a pro come look at it.

I’m frustrated because I think there is something I’m missing that is an easy fix. :/
