Photo of bad water heater control board
Mods, feel free to change the subject line.
I’ve noticed quite a few threads discussing this topic and thought I would post a photo showing what it looks like.
Notice the “popped” capacitor in the photo (bottom right). It should be a perfect cube. The bulging sides and top indicate the need to replace the control board.
In our case, this caused us to lose functionality of the LP water heater.
The electric water heater still worked even with this popped cap.
Here’s another angle...

I just had this problem last week, same exact symptom. Fortunately I was camping with my in laws and they had the same water heater with the same board so I swapped them to make sure that fixed the issue. I ordered the Dinosaur replacement (have had good luck with their fridge boards in the past), hopefully it will last longer.

Is there a link to the Dinosaur replacement site. Also what information (heater model number, etc) do I need to order the correct replacement. DMB - what replacement one are you getting? I am thinking of getting a spare.

A dealer near where I was camping had it for over $200 for the OEM board. I said no thank you.
