Propane regulator
Only had my reflection 2017 337 rls 2 weeks .. I filled up both propane tanks ,thinking they were not filled when I bought it.now they show red. So I re read older threads on troubleshooting , so I shut off both tanks ,unhooked hose to each, the regulator now shows green with every valves off and unhooked.. then hook up lines to each, slowly turn on valves on tanks, and now shows red, but stoves works fine... anyone hear of this situation.?

Not sure specifically what you have going on based upon the symptoms, however, many of us with 2017 models have replaced the regulator. I had one replaced under warranty in the summer of 2018 then replaced that one with a better quality unit in 2019. It is possible you have a leak elsewhere but the regulator is a common culprit. You can purchase some leak check spray and check all the fittings and the regulator to know for certain you are taking care of the issue. Good luck!

I replaced our 2016 303 rls regulator on one side 2 years ago. We could smell propane when walking past the propane bottle compartment on the curb side. Replaced it and smell went away. It was also emptying the bottle if left on prior to the replacement.

I wonder if it could be as simple as a failed assembly of the regulator gauge. Someone may have been having a rough day. I would replace it just to be sure.

You know there is a slide valve selector at the low pressure regulator probably at the driver side tank compartment. If that isn't selected for the appropriate tank, or at mid position the indicator will show red. I went through this too last year when I ran one bottle down and turned on the other not knowing about the switch.

I did the 2017 recall regulator replacement and have smelled propane ever since, you all have confirmed my suspicions and will replace the regulator. Spent too much time disassembling and redoing joints and didn't solve problem.

This is my next step in getting the trailer ready for camping season (October-April in Texas). I found a valve that would switch automatically to replace the one that I had to switch manually. I am going to start with that and then if needed replace the regulators. I am hoping that overhauling the gas system will help my refrigerator keep working on gas. It seems to go out when on the road, and I am hoping it is because it is not getting fuel.
