hot water heater stopped working
the hot water heater stopped working on our last camping trip.
it has worked well in the past and did work one time during this last trip, but mama bear said the water got colder toward the end of her shower.
I checked to be sure the gas was on, the cook stove eyes worked, so I assumed there was plenty of gas in the tanks.
checked the fuse box, water heater fuse was good.
the camper in a 2013 model Jayco, water heater has always worked well on gas, but never heated very good on electricity, never needed it to heat on electricity until now.
Guess I should have had that repaired years ago.
the camp ground where we were stayed had great, clean bath, showers facilities, so it was not a problem.
any suggestions or should I just take it back to the dealer.
I do not know the brand of the water heater, but plan to follow the trouble shooting guide before I take it back to the dealer, 30 miles,
however at this time of the year, it may take a while to get an appointment.
thanks for any input,
