Suburban SF-35Q furnace problem
Have a Suburban SF-35 furnace issue in our 2018 Solitude 384GK. When tstat request is made furnace cycles on normally. Trouble is a constant flame on/flame off situation. Monitoring heat outlet temp, burner flame is on till temp reaches 160F. Then burner cycles of till temp drop to 110F and then back on till outlet temp reaches 160F again. Back and forth till room temp finally reaches tstat setting. Takes forever to warm up trailer.
I’ve tested furnace operation on another identical trailer. Outlet temp stays around 165F till tstat is satisfied.
Seems to me a weak limit switch. Anyone else have this problem?

Sounds like a bad limit switch on the furnace to me. We've had this problem on another RV.

If there isn't enough air flow across the High Limit Switch it will get too hot and it will do it's job - cycle off as the temp reaches 160 degrees. I would be looking at all of the outputs from the furnace and make sure that they aren't folded over on themselves or pinched. Is there heat coming out of all of the heater vents in the trailer with sufficient airflow. Nothing that I see in the service manual says what the outlet temperature SHOULD be - probably because the closer to the furnace you are with measuring the outlet air the hotter it will be.
