RV Water Heater Will Not Light

Question:

Our 2013 raven 5th wheel water heater will not light, when you turn the switch on no noise or nothing for the heater to turn on. We have propane. Has to be something electrical. All fuses were checked and good. Didnt know if I should replace board

It's difficult to say for sure what might be preventing your water heater from lighting, as there are several possibilities. The most common cause is a bad thermocouple. We do have a few replacements available such as the 18 inch # CAM09273. This is a universal-fit item. I have attached our available selection that you can also check out.

If nothing is happening when you flip the switch then you may just need to replace the switch itself. We have a replacement with part # AT91959. If you can tell me what model water heater you have I will be happy to confirm if this will work or not as a replacement.

If you find that the control board needs to be replaced then we have the Replacement Control Panel # AT91367, which is designed for older Atwood model water heaters (AT94191, AT96121, and AT96136). Please let me know if you have a different model water heater and I will be happy to see if we have something else available that will work.
