While on the topic of the LP alarm, Jo and I finally got to take a trip with our 38TKSB3 to the SOITC mini-rally in Carthage, MO. While there, we turned on the furnace (something that we hadn't used yet other than turn it on to make sure it worked) and after it had run a while, the LP detector went off.

My suspicion is that because of the first "burn" of the furnace, it may have put off fumes that triggered the alarm. Is it possible my suspicion is correct? Or, should I be testing for LP? At no other time have we smelled anything like LP (ethyl mercaptin) in or around the coach.

Your thoughts please. Thanks in advance.

Terry
