furnace
I have a thermostat that I set for 75 and after 10 minutes the furnace turns off and the temp inside the RV is not even close to 75. What could the problem be?

- The manual thermostats are notoriously unreliable setting-wise. Suburban isn't even putting numbers on theirs anymore - just gray bars to indicate higher heat settings. I'd say if you turn the thermostat up and it reaches a comfortable temp then you're fine.
And, yes, the thread should probably be moved to Tech Issues. - Is the furnace controlled by the A/C unit in the ceiling? If that is where your thermostat is you will need to set it higher to get the temp up to 75 down at floor level.
- What are you cooking that only takes 75 degrees?
- Could be 'high temp limit switch' opening.......if heat exchanger airflow is restricted the exchanger can overheat.
Restricting can be on return air side, discharge side or combination of both.
Items stored blocking return air to furnace and/or registers closed off/blocked
Could even be intake/exhaust vents obstructed....dirty dabbers etc. - What kind of thermostat? Many rigs come with inexpensive thermostats that many upgrade to accurate digital thermostats for about $30.
- If its a manual stay it could be up to 10 degrees off check it with a thremastat
