Going dry camping for a few days this weekend (still chilly in our neck of the woods along the beach) so I went out to run the furnace and generator a bit. The furnace would start then click off. After three attempts I went outside and pulled the cover. The control panel red light was flashing three times. Went inside and looked up the code and the main culprit was NO PROPANE. Although I intend to top off before our trip, I still thought I had 3/8ths of a tank. I took the compressor and blew out the outside compartment (some dust - not bad), then went inside and light my stove top (the furnace is next in line from the burners). Started the furnace and it operates as it should. We use our RV regularly, but like a boat we need to use things...run things...so they'll work when we really need them. Hmmm...I wonder how much the cost of propane has risen. Blessings friends
