    Water Heater Not Working

    Our Domenic water heater suddenly stopped working. It won't heat using electric or propane. Owner Manuel says to reset a switch which we can't locate. We've checked fuses, shut everything down and restarted everything with no luck. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

    You didn't say what type of trailer you have, but I'll tell you what happened to us on our last trip. We were in Durant Ok and went to turn on the water heater and had no power using electricity and/or propane. I took the gas intake pipe out and cleaned, still nothing. After doing much research I found that there are 2 possible causes for this type of failure. 1) RV Water Heater Thermal Cutoff was blown. This happens when the water heater gets to hot, like when it's on but no water in the tank. Amazon Link:

    And the other problem is the circuit board has gone bad and needs to be replaced. Amazon Link:

    Really no way to know without replacing one and trying and if that doesn't fix it try the other. In our case it was the circuit board. Look on your circuit board to get the model number as there are several different types of circuit board and water heaters.

    Good luck!
