Stove Questions

[bensinc]

I have the Suburban 3 burner stove in my A122BH, and I'm just getting the camper out for the year today.

The last time I used it, one burner was going fine, then I heard a change in the sound, and the flame appeared to be under the stove top. I turned it off and haven't tried it since, but am about to check it again today.

I noticed that one burner was disconnected from the three burner connections at the knobs, and they really just seem to press fit back on. Is that correct? They have large holes in the sides anyway, so I imagine they don't need some sort of tight fit, and don't have any way to secure them anyway.

I'm wondering if just pressing them back on tightly is the solution, or do they connect some other way that I'm not seeing?

Thanks!

Sounds like a similar issue I had when my TT was new. There is a bracket that supports the burner head and also keeps the long tube from slipping off the control valve. A screw on bottom of burner head and one into the panel that supports the other burners.

I found screws just laying under other burners.

Remove bracket if still attached at bottom, find small machine screw probably lying on bottom panel, and secure bracket to bottom of burner flame diffuser. Then slup tube over control and secure bracket. Finding the screw will take longer than the rest.

That part is correct. They just slide back on, no tight connection at all. Pretty much everything on the downstream side of the knobs is just loose connection. Everything upstream of the control knobs needs to be tight and not leaking.
