I have a 2016 16XRB. Last night, the heater stopped working. The blower won't blow. I have plenty of gas and the battery reads 12.58v. I'll recharge the battery with solar today and see if it's just wanting more volts, but this heater has run on less. I'm at a loss.
Lots of threads on this problem of no heat from a furnace.
Simplest may be a mechanical problem. Blockage of the pilot light is frequently the cause of no heat. Inspect the pilot light and see if it will stay lit. If not, try cleaning with air blast from a can or compressor. Even a tiny bit of crud or spider body can cause a problem. Wasp nests, mouse nests, etc. can also be the problem. Pull the outside air vents and do a cleanup and inspection.
If you have electronic ignition, a board failure is always a possibility. Mine is the simple model and you will have to research using the search tool above. LOTS of POSTS. Your answer may be there.
The exact model of your furnace will be a help to getting accurate advice.
OOPS, almost forgot. Don't forget to check that your fuse isn't blown or thermostat bumped to the off position or just broken.

This is an Atwood hydro flame furnace. The refrigerator is on the same circuit, and that is working fine. The thermostat appears to work as I'd expect it to, but the fan never starts. I suspect this unit requires the fan speed to be at a certain level before the gas turns on. The furnace worked just fine until about midnight last night. Then it just never came back on. Based on the threads I've read, this is not a "common" problem and will likely need to bring it in for servicing (or try to do it myself). Thanks for the response.
Thanks to a YouTube video about this (which references the Jayco forums, so I know this solution is known to the community), I tripped a "hidden switch" on the unit. I'm still not sure why that tripped in the first place, so there may be an underlying problem still. It wasn't easy to get to in my 16XRB and I never actually saw it. I just had to feel for it.
and thanks for letting us know!
