Attention: TDR Forum Junkies On my last camping outing, I got a wake up call and you will to if you don't do some maintence on your water heater.
So my advice, being that every one is now winterizing there campers, Make a list of things you should do next spring when you take your outfit out of storage.
Top of the list is clean out the spider webs in the burner tubes.
What happened was I got a flash back and it took out my TCO (thermal cut off) and it locks out the water heater until it is repaired. (mine is a Atwood)
I found a local source that I could get this part from and saved a bundle of money over what it would have cost from my trailer dealer.
Clean out the spider webs of all burner tubes, and the rust from the fridge burner tube also.
When winterizing, don't forget the out side shower.
Sorry no pics. Just one upset person cause it happened to me.
