Water heater issues
Hello,
I have a Eagle HT 5er with the Atwood gc6aa-10e water heater. It stopped working on our last camping trip. It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed the 12v 15a blade fuse was blown. When I replaced the fuse, it started working again, but something was still not right. When I hit the Switch for electric water heat, the element heats up, but the gas also fires.
Just to be sure, and because parts are cheap, I replaced the heater element and the thermostat and eco switch.
Now, it’s working great, but I don’t believe the propane burner should be firing when just the electric heat switch is engaged (and not the LP switch). My understanding is that the unit will only use electric and LP if BOTH switches are flipped (dual fuel).
Have any of you encountered this issue? If so, can you share what caused it?
