Hello Everyone! I'm the proud owner of a very cool '84 Toyota Sunrader that is in tip top shape that I have enjoyed refurbing for the last couple years. Just recently I purchased an '82 Chevrolet Honey and I am beyond confused! I firstly am unable to ignite the furnace. Which in Detroit right now is no bueno. Propane tank is topped off 3/4 full, I have replaced the thermostat and the stove and oven pilots are igniting. The closest manual for it I can find online is the Jamboree and I wasn't able to find anything to help. There's talk about an “auxiliary power plant” that I've read and I'm not sure if this extra battery in outside cargo (shown in attached photo) is supposed to do something? I've taken apart all the furnace panels inside and out to see if there's an ignition switch anywhere but I think I'm really missing something. In addition, this thing has an electric water heater that won't crank on when I plug it into my genny, it's completely inaccessible to diagnose without removing all the plumbing etc, looks relatively new though. I'm not sure if this is connected to the furnace pilot/power issue or completely separate. I guess I got lucky with the Toyota being my first RV project because all the systems in that are pretty self explanatory. Hoping someone has experience in any of this and can give me some guidance! Thank ya'll in advance for your time!
