I've got an Atwood 8516 furnace in my 1997 FWC. Worked great with no problems last year. This year, I turned it on via the thermostat and nothing happened - no fan, no clicks, no nuthin. There is no electricity at the thermostat. There is electricity coming into the heater via the red wire on a 4 prong plug. That red wire connects to a 4 way block on the lower right side of the big round unit heater unit, which I assume is the fan motor (open the access door from outside, and the plastic protector flap and you see the round motor situated vertical, with the sticker saying "atwood mobile products" etc, a bunch of wires, mostly on the right, and down low on the right mounted with two screws to the motor is a 4 way block that is about 3/4" square). This has 4 prongs, the hot red wire coming in, plus a yellow, blue and another red. None of these wires have electricity, other then the hot red wire.
Could this 3/4" 4 way block be the culprit? If so, what's it called an how easy is it to get a replacement?
There is also a 1" x 1 1/2" box on the upper right with a reset button on top. That reset button is stuck in, and won't pop back out, but the wires all get electricity to them. I assume I should replace this as well. It says "w58-xb1a4a-5, amp 5, 250vac max, 50 vdc max mexico 96-10. Where would I find a replacement?
Thanks!
