It's cooled off in Arizona, and I had the first need to use my heater. To make a long story short, once the heater cycles up to the set temp, it shuts off and then won't start again. I'm not sure what I'm doing to get it to start back up, but I'm increasing and decreasing temp settings, turning the therm off and on, and eventually it starts working again. I've seen a few comments about replacing functional Airxcel thermostats, but I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this and knows a solution, besides cycling the settings at 2am when it's 55 degrees in the trailer.

JH2112 I'm experiencing the same issues you mentioned in your original post. I won't get a chance to check it out until TG weekend, but from what I read it can be the t stat like you mentioned. Or, the high temp switch on the furnace, or sail switch on the furnace, or the circuit board on the furnace. Also, obstructed ducts/not enough air flow. On mine when I had it set to 64* it cycled like it should. Anything set above 64*, I found myself waking up 2-3 in the morning and having to turn of the t stat and back on and furnace started to cycle again. I have 2021 28G and the furnace is SF-30Q.Last edited by Phil N; 11-09-2021, 12:04 PM.Phil

EDIT: or not... the heater just shut off again.Last edited by JH2112; 11-17-2021, 06:59 AM.Jeff
