| My hot water heater does not ignite on propane. It worked a few weeks ago now only on electric. Doesn’t click like it’s igniting. Propane is on and there is water in tank. Anyone have any ideas? |

Dumb question but is the water already hot from the electric element? If so the propane side’s thermostat won’t be calling for heat.
Here is Suburban’s manual. There’s a troubleshooting flowchart for the dsi system on pg 19. You’ll need a multimeter. Have fun! http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Suburban_Water_Heater_Service_Manual.pdf ------------- 1994 Chinook Concourse 1995 RV6A Experimental Aircraft 2015 Rpod 179 - sold |
