    That's also what i believe because we tested the connection on the furnace it self a has power going to it but the fan dosen't come on when i use the ac thermostat. They installed both Furrion units.
    i checked the 2amp fuse on the board looked fine. What's the other 12 vdc fuse you are refering to?

    You should have a 12 V fuse in your fuse panel (near your breakers) that is hopefully labeled.....your furnace needs a control wire to turn it on....not sure about Furrion but the other guys either use a ground or power to complete the circuit to tell the board to start the sequence...not sure how technical you are but I will look for some info on the Furrion and you may be able to check the wire.

      I know in post #1 you wrote that you don't want to take your trailer back to the dealer, so consider asking GD to authorize a mobile technician. You'll have to pay a "service fee" (the cost to bring the repairman to your site) but at this point it might be worth it.

      Customer Service's number is on the "business card" on this forum's home page.
      Yes i believe I'll have to do that with the furnace i think theirs a bad connection or no connection at all from the acs to the furnace i can hear the ceiling ac click when i put it on heat but nothing on the furnace. I got some cut off fuses and a dinosaur board on the way for the water heater hopefully that will be up and running soon.

        I bet this is your issue on the furnace - they forgot to set the DIP switch on the main AC to tell it there is a furnace.....only do this is you feel comfortable....here is the Furrion video showing how to set the switch.

        As for your HWH keep in mind if you install an aftermarket board there is a good chance you void your warranty for anything further.....

                Update on the furnace finally got a tech to check it out. The dealer only ran one wire to the ac control box and didn't even hook up anything regarding the furnace. The tech is ran the second wire and hooked up the furnace wires to the control box. Fired right up!!

                  Lawrence Lgraff06 glad to hear that it is working now. Too bad the guys that installed it the first time didn't do the job right and caused you these issues.

                      Thanks for the replies, yes i agree im not happy with this dealership i called 3 times and was told they would call me back. Never received a call from them thats why i finally decided to pay a mobile tech. I have to go pickup my temporary tag. Im going to show them the invoice where it states that they didn't hook it up when they installed the ac. But i doubt they will reimburse me 🙄
