Well we got a 2021 Alpine we were looking at and it's in pretty good shape. All setup and having issues with the water heater. It's a Suburban on demand tankless type. Can't get it to fire off and heat water. Even with the control panel switch to OFF, the ignitor steadily pops away. Turning it on and no light off. It did briefly so I made sure I have propane. We do. Lit the stove burners with a strong flame. Recycled both the 120VAC and the 12VDC switches. No change. Sometimes the fan in it is blowing even though it didn't light off. Sometimes not. I found the owner's manual and not much help with this issue. Tomorrow if I don't get some help here I'll call Suburban for help. Anyone have similar issues with this? Seems that a continuous ticking of the ignitor would be bad and cause early failure of that part. Previous owners haven't used it in over a year and I haven't tried with them yet.
