I am so frustrated with this heater. Had issues since day one. Latest is no spark...again and this time it's pure magic..
- I've, replaced the sail switch, twice as I purchased a second (third) as a back up. No go. That was after doing the jumper wire instructions FWC has on their website that point to the sail switch as defective.
- Maybe it's the battery, low fan speed?, 12.7 volts, Victron shows 100%, start the truck up to add extra juice - no go.
- okay maybe trim the excess vent hose everyone is talking about...done...no go.
This is where it gets pure magical. If I remove the sail switch and manually trigger it, it fires up, well a few times it did. If I install the switch, use a peice of small wire to loop around the switch and manually trigger it, nothing!
What else am I missing?
Sorry for starting another "heater won't work" thread but I've read every single one of these over the year and still can't understand these heaters.
