Even though the water is not fixed and it definitely needs a new circuit board, Les definitely bought me some time with the few adjustments he made. While it does shut off periodically, I have been able to run it when needed for the past 24 hours and have had all the hot water I want for showers and washing dishes (yes, I’m manually washing dishes while on the road!).
When I get to Dawson, I will research suppliers for the part to find the one with the best shipping options. This is going to end up being a nearly $200 part and it just was not something I could afford this past winter. Many people will disagree with me, but I consider hot water a luxury, not a necessity. Moreover, I didn’t know for certain that I needed the new control board. Now that I’ve had an RV repair expert look at the problem, fiddle with settings, and change the probe I know for sure that the purchase of a new board will solve my problem and I am more willing to spend the money.
I’m off to take advantage of unlimited running water and my ten gallons of hot water that would otherwise go to waste… 😀
