My first discovery was when I kept hearing a repetitive clicking sound in the blower compartment. I could remove the cover and operate the OFF-RESET rocker switch and the clicking would stop for a while.
We just had a major rain event the past few days, and today the same clicking noise started again. I pulled the cover and this time I looked everything over and found water under the control board and a little puddle under the exhaust port. The Red LED on the board blinked in unison with the clicking sound, and there is corrosion all over the board itself. It's obvious that water intrusion is the problem but there are no cracks on the cover so how is water/rain entering? I'll get a new board but does anyone have any advice on where to look and how to fix this? Attachment 9001

First I would ensure that the issues are with the control board. Assuming it is, if it is less than 2 years old, Atwood will warranty the parts and labor if you use someone from their service list provided on their website. If out of warranty, I would replace the board with a Dinosaur Electronics 50 pin + replacement board. Warranty is better and is compatible.
Just my 2 cents.....
