I have a 2012 Forrest River that we bought used last year. We took it out for our first camping excursion over the long weekend and I happen to discover an issue with the hot water heater.
I am always a double/triple check systems to make sure they are in working order and thankfully my thoroughness paid off. I lit my manual hot water heater without issue and went back to check it about 5 minutes later, and everything was chugging along. I went and checked it about 15 minutes later and there was a flame coming out where the pilot light gas line meets the gas valve. (see attached Photo...sorry for the quality it was dark)
Any suggestions on what my issue may be? Gas valve...burner tube?
The closest RV dealer is about 90 minutes away, so it is not easy to coordinate getting it in to have checked out.
Any advice would be appreciated!!
