Propane issue with tent trailer - advice please

2000 flagstaff 206 ltd tent trailer

I am able to get propane to the stove but am getting no gas to the pilot light to start the furnace. I inspected the lines below, their is only one valve and I cant see any reason why I cant get propane to the pilot light.

The trailer has been in storage for a couple of years, so I ran the stove for 10 min to clear any air bubbles in the line, I tried turning the gas on and off slowly, several times.

Can you guys give me some advice on what to check and try next ???


I appreciate any help!

Clean the burner tube, orifice and other parts. Could be a spider nest or other bug home in there!
Can you smell gas at all at the furnace?

No smell or noise, so something is stopping the gas from flowing to the pilot.

I had this same problem with a Rockwood tent trailer. I got so frustrated with it that I finally got rid of it.
