Furnace Issue 2007 Cherokee 29DD

Hey all, first time using this camper in the cold (just bought it used this year), and the furnace either won't ignite or won't stay lit (can't tell which).

I have full battery and full gas tank. Thermostat set to auto and set to furnace. Set the temp to high. The furnace fan comes on and I can hear the ignitor clicking.. but that's at far as it goes. I can smell the gas by the vents outside. It gets warm out there by those vents when the clicking is happening but then it goes cold. When the clicking happens it gets warm out there again, and then it goes cold. After an hour of trying it started last night but in the middle of the night it went out and I can't get it going again.

That is about all I know. Any pointers or do I have to take it to a repair place? Thanks ya'all!

Edit: I Also wanted to mention there isn't any place outside to access any wiring. I can see the fridge stuff but nothing for the furnace. I took off the air vent cover inside the camper and saw a couple of wires and one of the thermostats (I believe) but that's it. I don't know where all the other wires and/or circuit board reside.

Is it a suburban furnace? Maybe nt-20seq? If so, remove igniter and clean ends with emery cloth or coarse sandpaper. It may not be sending back a flame proving signal to circuit board.
