Could Not Repair It

My heater would not fire and the fan will not come on. I checked the power nothing. Checked the fuse OK.
Now I took it to the Dealer and they replaced the thermostat.
Now it is good. I missed that one! I will not work on a Propane heater. I am not going have my wife and dogs in a trailer knowing I worked on it. I am a chicken when it comes to propane.
Every year I use leak detector spray on any threaded part in the line.

That’s not chicken! You just know when to throw the keys to a pro and tell him/her to “ call me when it’s done”.

I understand your concerns about working with gas but a post here explaining your problem may have put you in the direction of the T Stat. It would be worth a post going forward. You can always stop short of any advice you are not comfortable with...
