Furnace Tips?
|
adammentzell
I have 1997 EVC with a furnace that will not light. I have pulled it out and found that it is
getting propane, not clogged and the fan is running like a top. I follow the startup procedures and get no heat. Gowesty advised trying to put my hand over the intake on the outside while starting it. No luck. Any tips? I heard that some people have found the thermostat to be the problem??? Thanks, Adam |

On my 95, there was several l.e.d. indicator lights on the circuit
board and a sticker to explain their function. That might be of help. If you can't find the sticker: green=start cycle red=valve open slow green=bad electrode fast greeen= timed out I ended up cutting a hole in the forward side of the shroud and copying the sticker and pasting it where I could read it with the furnace intstalled. Now with a mirror I can troubleshoot it while it is installed (after removing the gray plastic interior panel). The Eurovan service training manual from Winnebago (I bought mine from Go Westy), has 18 pages on the furnace.....troubleshooting, wiring diagram, etc. You might want to pick one up. It covers everything Winnebago added to the van, in detail for servicing. Pete 95 EVC |

If the thermostat is bad, you can verify by jumpering the 2 wires

together which will call for heat ll the time. If the furnace burns OK it's the thermostat. It would be interesting to modify the furnace so the fan runs all the time (perhaps at reduced voltage to conserve battery and generate less noise). That way it wouldn't wake up light sleepers as it cycles on and off. Would probably have to verify that such a modification was OK with the furnace people.
