    The FLT light is associated with the water heater burner ignition. You either have low propane or had air in the lines, which is most likely the cause considering you had a furnace problem at the same time.

    Updated situation is out of propane. Yesterday the tanks were showing green, now they show red. I'm working on educating myself to prevent further issues. The plan so far is to go through the dealer orientation that I was not originally a part of, and to live in the trailer myself for a few days to make sure I can run the damn thing myself.

    Also, I can still make it to lunch and am packing up to leave now.

    There are two cherry pickers in the alley blocking my garage. I might be a minute. ECAEB1C0-DF86-414D-AAFD-224BAE08934C.jpeg

    Quick reply as I'm heading out the door...

    If you're running propane to heat water and the furnace, it'll go very quick. Two 20lb bottles don't last long.

    Can't say for this model, but the water heater will often have both elec (120V) and gas (needs 12V to fire). If there's not an elec switch on the inside, there's likely one on the outside under the cover. If you can, only use gas for recovery and quicker heating, then use the elec if it has that.

    The propane furnace needs 12V to fire and run the blower. All that either comes off the battery, or battery via converter if plugged into shore power.

    You can supplement the gas furnace with a (safe) space heater, I prefer the oil filled electric, but keep in mind that the furnace is often vented to the underbelly to keep the water from freezing if it's an all-season rig, so you must accommodate.

    permanent external water connections need heat tape.

    Shit...I thought that was gonna happen tomorrow....Friday.

    Eh, feck….next time.

    I had some time today to start drawing out electrical wiring diagrams for everything I've done. The first three were just scribbles getting orientated, blew the first serious try, and got it pretty good on the last one. This is for me as I get older (CRS dynamic)...and for the kid when he gets it after I shit the bed. Just good planning I figure.
