Anyone ever replaced the furnace in their camper?

Got any hints, tips, tricks or advice for us? I don't even know where to get one, but we are camping for New Years and I forgot it was out! Weather can be finicky in Tx so it can be 30 or 55 that night.

here is a helpful PDF, the unit may not need full replacement, I had a circuit board fail on one of my past rigs, easy to change. tweetys.com carries about everything for an RV

Awesome! Thanks!
It clicks like it wants to come on, so we are thinking maybe the blower is out- but maybe it is just a fuse?

All the Christmas gifts are stowed in there right now so we can't mess with it for a week haha

Yea, you need to diagnose it a bit. Check the flue, etc. Sometimes there is an error code that flashes. That will narrow it down. Also, its a good idea to check the conection points ( wires) for corrosion, so clean off the contacts.

If it is clicking, check the sail switch, google it, easy fix and a problem I hear a lot about

This! Happened to me once before with my first TT. I actually took furnace out and took it to RV dealer and they fixed it up.

Might sound silly but check for spider webs. My water heater wouldn't fire cuz the draft tube was blocked
