Lighting pilot light for hot water heater

[Uncle Tuff]

Hi Fellow RVer’s,

It seems as if my pilot light from my hot water heater went out and I’m trying to figure out how to get it going. Any help? I can’t find any videos on it for my rig.

Check the fuses, but I'm betting the igniter is corroded. Get a toothbrush looking wire brush (Cheap @ hardware stores) and clean that probe. (The one inside that tube-bottom right in pic)

And don't forget to give a look-see to that fuse in your pic. (Top right corner, next to that multi-wire white plug.

But maybe we should ask about the basics first. LP tanks full? Are they/it turned on? How long after turning on did you try the pilot? (Sometimes it takes quite a bit of time for the gas to get to the water heater.)
