Still getting this thing fully operational just got some new propane tanks hooked up and tried to turn on the heat but got nothing at all the thermostat will make a spring sound when sliding the slider but nothing else happens at all and when I opened the access panel outside there were no lights on the circuit board I did find a tiny toggle reset switch which I cycled but nothing happened the water heater is electric and gas I believe I opened the relief valve and confirmed that it is full of water but cannot figure out how to get it to turn on there's a red switch behind the sink which I believe is the hot water switch but nothing happens when I toggle it at all any help with this stuff is greatly appreciated the campers so old 2005 I believe there's just not much data available on it and I do not have a service manual at all unfortunately thank you everyone

I did test the stove out to verify I had propane flow and all 3 burners lit good the oven started as well but I had to manually light it with a lighter but it did work once I manually lit it
 
We have a 2005 Fleetwood motorhome. The water heater looks similar to the picture you posted. Our water heater had a similar problem. It worked on electric but wouldn't fire up on gas. If you have 110v power available try that.

On our motorhome, it was related to the E.C.O. and T'stat. I bought new ones when our water heater wouldn't ignite. However I never installed them. I was looking to see how to remove them and moved the wires a bit. After that the water heater fired right up. Can't say that would solve your problem but it might be worth a try. They can be bought on Amazon for $10-15.00. Good luck.
 
Verify that you have a good 12 volt source. Even the water heater and furnace need 12 volts on the control board. Plus, the gas valves need at least 10.5 volts to operate.
 
Most Attwood and whomever bought 'em Water heaters have one T-stat and on ECO the control board decides Gas and/or Electric based on which remote switch you flip (or switches)

Most Suburban's have two entirely independent systems. One gas. one electric. Two ECO's Two T-Stats . Just so you know.

And in both cases the operative word is "Most" not all
 
Is this wired correctly it's how I found it the yellow wire is on the spot for the R and they have a white wire on the Y spot
