Hey there! My wife and I are newer RV owners and we're living in a 2020 Heartland Northtrail 33 RETS Travel Trailer. We've been having a pretty confusing issue with the propane and I'd love to get some advice. We are getting propane to the water heater and furnace, but our stove will not light. We've tried holding down the ignitor just in case its frozen up, and we've already tried resetting the propane excess valve. We thought it could be air in the lines, but we can't light the stove top to purge the lines because no propane is reaching it. We're moving into a house soon and plan to sell the trailer, and I want to get this fixed before we put it up for sale.
 
On our previous coach we had issues as well.

Had to use a long lighter to lite the stove since the igniter never seemed to do the trick.

On at least one of the burners the propane flow tube would vibrate out of position and that burner just refused to do anything until I reset things.
 
I have found and have heard of the rubber lines they use now instead of copper being sandwitched under something and flattening them out. No propane going thru. New models like yours run steel lines back to a central point and then run rubber lines to each appliance. Check the path of that line.
