Re: Can't light water heater
Thanks much to DrewE and Bisquit; the switch was well hidden by the back of the couch, and also a drape. Bingo! Now works like a champ. I find it amazing that the service manager at the outfit that inspected it completely and did some pre-sale prep work couldn't, wouldn't, or feigned ignorance over the phone. "Bring it by and We'll take a look at it." Saved by the internet and a bunch of nice folks. Sorry to show off my ignorance of the finer points of ignition systems. It really resembles what lights off jet engines; which I happen to know a little more about than RVs. Thanks again, Jim294Views0likes0CommentsRe: Can't light water heater

If YES..it can take a while and several tires to get propane flowing to each appliance......farther away from propane supply (tank/cylinder) the longer if can take Is that Atwood water heater a Pilot Flame Manual Light type OR a Electronic Spark Control type? (Model Number) This is the first time ever; We just recently acquired the MH. It has a piezo spark set up. Model G6A-8E. There is supposed to be a rocker switch on one of the panels. Fridge and furnace work fine. I may just have to do a kludge wiring job. Previous owner not available to ask. The printed circuit board control was replaced by a major chain RV shop. I have some questions about the quality of workmanship. I'll go over all the spade connectors, as invisible corrosion is fairly common here with salt on the roads. Thanks for the response.
