This customer had a brand new Dometic water heater installed the previous week in another state. The water heater only worked for 2 ½ days before it quit heating the water. I was shocked to find more than one bad part.

Kenny get yourself a 12vdc circuit tester “LIGHT” on a coiled cord with an alligator clip. Craftsman made a great one. It will save you a lot of time over a meter, because you can visually see power, no power and dropouts of power. Also a pair of wire piercing test leads to a dc switch. It will allow you to bypass troubled parts while testing. I also like to disable incoming power to the appliance with a 12 volt fused jump starter. This setup is golden when chasing down problems.

Sounds about normal, Kenny. Seems odd to have two bad devices on the same unit. It must have been made on a Monday or Friday. Have a good weekend. Thanks for the videos.

Good old thermal fuses! Last year our friends bought a brand new Apex ulta-Lite. We went camping with them for their shake down trip. The Dometic water heater worked for 1 hour then quit. Troubleshooting it, we found that the gas tube going into the burn chamber was not installed correctly and a bit bent. flame was occasionally licking out the opening and cooked the thermal fuse. The fuse did it job! so we fixed the gas tube and bypassed the fuse to test whether or not flame was correct. Then got on the phone and called around to find some replacement parts. Some months later, my friends dealer finally found time to look it over and ended up replacing the whole heater since they found dents in the tank. We still wonder if the factory guys used the heater for a football before installing it.

I'm not overly impressed with my Dometic water heater. seems like I need to replace that thermal coupler about every 3 months. Just did that this afternoon. Should I get a board to keep on hand, just in case? Thanks for your videos

Hey Kenny, im getting ready to change my Goshen lift cable on my popup. Is the hydraulic crimp tool on your Amazon page what i want or something else? I have an old school swaging tool but the hydraulic seems more of a guarantee. I dont need my lift crimp oming loose at the race track.
@hillbillyrv
@hillbillyrv 4 месяца назад
I still have the manual tool too. The hydraulic is SOOO much easier. That manual one is too hard to squeeze for me anymore.

I (novice) was trouble shooting something like this last winter for a homeless Vet. It too kept coming and going.. I could see that the T/stat-eco assembly was bad but the power was also coming and going too. Ran out of time and we were freezing plus we had no parts. I know the RV was full of mice so I figure the main power wire was chewed or rotten and was intermittent.

Switch it over to electric and save some propane the furnace is already burning propane do they work just fine on electric especially if they're sitting at a park plugged in the shore power

@hillbillyrv
@hillbillyrv 4 месяца назад
When you hear that sound coming from a water heater the flame is inside the burner tube instead of coming out the end of the burner tube. The airflow was being disrupted. Did you notice it straightened up when I raised the door?

Great Video Kenny. Does the Thermal Device have to be bent like you have it or can it be straight? I just replaced mine and it came straight but my old one was bent.
