Troubles with Suburban SW6DEL Water Heater
This water heater is in a 2014 Outback 298RE. With the LP gas heating the water if the 120v. element is turned on, the following cycle when heat is needed the LP will not start. Tests that I have do...

So, I've been turning my Electric on - and no matter what I do, I can't get the LP to fire concurrently.
I woke up the other morning, and found water all over the floor - along with the water temperature extremely hot.
I figured there was something wrong with the high temp - so I switched back to running on just LP.
No Joy.
After disassembling my access cover for the reset high temp, I found the electric heater circuit bolt (which holds the high temp and shut off at 130), the spot weld had failed.
Sigh.
Once I reset the LP, it fired right up.
