Stove and oven not working

2017 Jayco Jayflight with an Atwood range/oven. Heater, hot water heater, and fridge working on propane but the stove isn't even after replacing the stove regulator. I'm getting fuel thru the regulator, although I'm not sure of the pressure since I don't have a tester. With the stove regulator off I can blow thru the valve rack with burner valves open and feel air coming thru the orafice.

Any suggestions? Really frustrating being full timers and having to cook outside on the grill all the time.

Did it ever work? If not then maybe the gas line is not even connected to the tank. If all other propane items work normally you can assume the propane system is in good order. That leaves the hose connection to the stove from where ever it ties in to the propane system.

I would think you should be able to disconnect the propane input to the stove and see if gas is available there. Somewhat a dangerous procedure and something you wouldn't want to leave open for more than a few seconds. Maybe you could just loosen it a tad and do a soap bubble test to see if pressure is there. May be a kinked hose or clogged, although I am not sure how you clog a gas hose.

I have attached a service manual for a typical RV hose. Maybe it will help. Can't hurt.

I've had it for more than a year and everything had worked properly until a month ago. We're full time RV'ers and have lived in it since we purchased it. It's been in the same spot for 5 months now so I wouldn't think it's a pinched line. I thought the stove regulator was bad, but with a new regulator it's still not working. I had the regulator disconnected from the valve block and still connected to the main line and had my wife turn the bottle on then off, I got some gas but without a pressure gauge I'm not sure if it's sufficient. Maybe I just got a faulty replacement stove regulator? I'd think it was the main regulator except all other propane appliances seem to be working properly.

Have you checked for spider nest? Spiders love propane for some crazy reason. Many years ago when my rig was still under warranty. I had spiders cause me issues.

Possible the stove regulator has dirt before the screen. Remove it and clean it.

I’ve had liquid in my line before and had to drain it. A fairly simple procedure 1st shut off your propane 2nd find the fitting that connects to the stove and unscrew it. If there is liquid present it will drain out. Also to ensure you get all of the liquid out turn turn on one of your burners(don’t forget to turn it off once you’re done) 3rd reconnect and tighten ensure you have leak detection (a dish soap/water mixture works well) and pour some on the fitting. 4th open your propane (if it bubbles you have a leak and have to tighten your fitting some more, if no bubbles you’re good).
