  • Oven stopped working, propane smell

    Hi, we have a 2020 - 21bhe. The furrion oven has been working fine from the start, only thing that we have always lit it manually and not with the sparker.
    Last time I used it the pilot light would lite very difficult, but it turned on. I set the temperature and a sickening propane smell filled the whole RV. I got nauseous it was really bad.
    I turned the oven off and the smell disappeared. The stove top is still working and does not cause a smell. Any idea what the problem could be?

    You will want to take the rig in for service as the thermocouple should have prevented the gas valve from opening without a burning pilot light as a heat source. Propane has a strong pungent smell. Did your propane alarm go off?

      I agree with Guest -- propane's not something to mess around with unless the owner has the experience and tools required. Get it looked at under warranty through your dealer.
