Truamtic Gas Heating Problem

[dralex]

I have a single outlet Trumatic Gas air blower on my boat which will now only work on it's "half" setting. It ignites every time on this setting, but when I try the full setting, it cuts out and the red warning light comes on. It seems to stem from a really cold night after which there was some blistering of the paint on the exhaust outlet and the unit cut out. The gas cylinder is giving good pressure to the cooker. The batteries are fully charged and we're on shore power.

Any suggestions?

Check all the filters and make sure that you have full airflow through the appliance, it sounds like it is overheating on full. As a final tought try checking the high range temp swith this may be the fault ? lets us know how you get on.

THanks- I'll try that. It's going to be Thursday before I get back down to the boat.

sounds like the overheating before has affected some component, can you get hold of a proper manual and do some fault finding?
