Furnace not working jayco chateau 21

My furnace is not coming on when I slide the thermostat control to warmer. No fan, no click, nothing. I have LP gas(stovetop is working) and the master switch is on. I found the power converter/fuse box but don’t see a fuse for furnace as I would expect. (What I see is listed below) If anyone can help with more ideas or the correct fuse location, it would be much appreciated. I’m renting this RV.

Thanks, much appreciated!
Fuses:
1.water pump 15
2. Left side. 15
3. Right side 15
4. Rear 15
5. Appliances 7.5
6. LP detector 5
7. Tank heater 15
8. Electric awning 15
9. Audio/video
10. Lights
11. Slide

I don't have much to add if it's dead-dead either. You're right to be looking at the 12V side of things. If you have a multimeter, you could head out and probe the control board with the right manual. The Atwood manuals are easy to find and download.


There have been plenty of reports of dead thermostats. You might try shorting that out and seeing if you get a click/response

Remove the 4 screws and cover on the outside of the furnace on the outside wall You'll find a reset button

I stumbled on the fact that the furnace system needs a minimum voltage to even think about working. The catch 22 is, you want the furnace when its cold which is exactly when the battery loses some of its juice.
My furnace would not work so through trial and error I discovered that if I started the generator, voila, it jumped to life.
That at least has been my personal experience
