Atwood furnace not working!!

We have a 2016 Whitehall 28dsbh (second owner) so warranty does not apply. We ran our furnace once and it ran fine. Second time I tried to fire it up I got nothing blower fan does not turn on. The thermostat clicks when you hit the temp to kick in on and I can hear a buzzing noise coming from the furnace area giving me the idea power is getting to the unit but the blower will not turn. Any help would be much appreciated.

Are you connected to shore power or boondocking on battery only?

Is the furnace easy to access? If so, look for rocker switch where the wires come into the furnace. Turn that switch off then back on and see if anything changes.

Short of taking the unit out I've pretty well tried everything. Disconnected batteries for a couple of minutes to reset turned the toggle switch on and off. My assumption is a bad circuit board but hoping someone ran into the same problem and had an easy fix

Thought of another thing to try. Does your gas flow look OK on the stove? Opening the propane bottle too fast can trip the regulator safety causing the gas to flow too slow to operate the fridge and furnace. Reset the regulator by shutting off the bottles and opening a stove valve for a minute or so (bleeds off any residual pressure). Shut off the stove valve and open the bottle valve slowly.
