Hi all, thought I'd check to see if anyone has experienced the same problem or has advice, I haven't called Grand Design yet, but that might be the easy answer. Anyway, when my range/oven works, it works great, it's just that after a period of not using it, it won't light. If I turn the main burner, for example, to the light position, and click the starter you can hear gas and it will fire up, but immediately goes out. Same for the oven, I can get the pilot to light, but as soon as I actually turn the oven on it goes out. Now, here's where I am starting to lean toward some sort of slow leak, because if I go over and switch my fridge to gas, or force the furnace to come on (basically another downstream gas consumer), then I can go back to my stove and it will light and work just fine. Less than ideal way to start the thing every morning. So it seems to me either there is a slow leak and running an appliance downstream purges the air from the line. Or it seems like maybe there is too much pressure and some sort of safety valve kills the gas to the range/oven? Hope this makes sense, I am new to the RV life and don't really know much about the propane systems in these things. This is in an Imagine 22RBE XLS by the way.
Thanks in advance for any info!
