THOR #10976
Atwood Furnace

Received a letter from Keystone yesterday regarding Service Advisory: 18-318.
Apparently certain Atwood furnace models have wiring that may come in contact with the exhaust vent pipe causing the furnace to shut down.
The remedy is to remove the exhaust vent tube and install a fiberglass sleeve around the exhaust tube then reinstall exterior vent.
This work is required to be performed at an authorized dealer.
Has anyone heard of a repair that can be done at home instead of having your RV tied up at the dealer??
We have a 2018 2952RLF Dutchmen fifth wheel.

That tube is easily removed from the outside and just slides right out of the furnace housing. I would think, if they will furnish the parts, you could DIY in an hour or so.

That would be great if the dealer would provide the fiberglass sleeve!
Thanks for the quick response!
