Fairview gas regulator gr9984

2008 8528RKWS 5th- wheel-

Gas flow went out on last trip but tanks seem to have plenty of gas remaining.
Regulator shows red on switching to either tank. Anybody else have problem with regulator?

Ours gave up the ghost on the coldest night of the year! Woke up about 5AM freezing...knew I had plenty of propane...when I went to check it...the other tank was full...it had not switched over! I replaced it myself, only takes a couple of wrenches and some teflon tape. You can get the replacement in the $25.00 range at Camping World.

Buy a leak detector while you are there. under 20 bucks.
Also buy the yellow propane grade tape (thicker).
The white stuff will leak.

Lou, didn't know about the yellow tape, thanks!
But I'll tell you what, you put enough white tape on it, it won't leak either!LOL
