Primus System

[Brian Gatley]

Thank you Ron.

I finally got a hold of my mechanic on the phone. Here is what we did
and I will see if the coach gets heat:

1. Make sure I was getting propane. Make sure LPG valve is on and
master switch on. Light stove. Works fine.

2. Turn on bedroom Primus boiler button. Light is green, but no
indication of boiler firing up (no sound, no noise, nothing).

3. With bedroom boiler button on, I turned on the drivers boiler button.
Boiler(s) begin to fire. Looks like steam and condensation coming out,
but eventually it calms down and sounds like normal boilers running.

4. Boiler button light at drivers panel is still red and the button at
bedroom is green. Manual says nothing about a red light.

After a while heat is being produced on both sides of the coach. Both
rheostat fan controls in the bathroom and kitchen work and push warm
air.

The front control panel still has a red light at the boiler button and I
can't find reference to it in the manuals, except vaguely when testing
control panel and adjusting temperature gauge. I can't tell if there is
an implication from the manual that the panel is not getting adequate
voltage or not when the red light is lit.

Everything seems to heat up fine so far. Bedroom is a little cold, but
hopefully it will warm up also. Can't find any coils except for under
the bed.

The light white smoke indicates that the igniter is probably working
O.K., but you are not lighting the burner successfully. I've not
dealt with that problem before, so not sure if it is a propane supply
problem or the board on the boiler not turning on the propane. Since
I'm not there, no way to know. Make sure you follow the
troubleshooting guide that is provided in your manual that comes with
the system. It is referred to as a Fault Tracing Schedule. It should
give you some additional help. If you don't have it, let me know.
Unfortunately, I am at a rally till tomorrow and do not have my
scanner with me or I could send that portion to you.
