- Atwood 31501

When I got the board in the mail, it said made in China on it, and I thought I got screwed, but I did some looking at different RV dealer sites and every reputable place has a picture of exactly what I received. The component numbers match between what I got and what I saw in the pictures online. The manufacturers build things to the specs of the party ordering them, and from what I can glean, Fenwal is a distributor of Atwood parts, so the manufacturer built this board to Fenwal's spec. If Fenwal supplied garbage, I doubt Atwood would buy from them, because people who buy new RV's want stuff that has a reputation for reliability. The Fenwal Atwood replacement board was a direct fit and worked perfectly in my Atwood furnace. It took about 15 minutes to change. I paid a little under $100 for it on Amazon, but RV dealers are charging upwards of $180 for the same item. I don't trust a cheap knock-off in an RV I use occasionally in cold weather. I ordered an extra one to put in the cabinet just in case. The original one lasted 15 years, so I don't suspect this one will fail any time soon, but I figure it's like a spare tire - if you have one in the trunk, you'll never have a flat, but if you don't have one, you'll get a flat on a dark rainy night after a real crappy swing shift.

Furnace fan would not turn on .. in checking it seems the onboard relay had failed.. Purchased this board at considerable les cost than a dealer wanted.. Easy install and now I have heat. Highly Recommended..

This board works! I tried lower priced board with similar specs, but would not work. Thankfully Amazon took the return. And I ordered a more expensive factory,board…. success!! Thanks Amazon and Fenwal

A design problem on the older Atwood heaters. Rain water will be blown by the fan onto the mother board. Get 2. It takes a while for them to go bad. They are not hard to replace. Unless it is raining. Ha, ha.

Beware some of the cheaper knockoffs, they are not made to the same standard as these. This one is spot on and works correctly. Beware trying to save 10% and buying those other cheap boards. Spend a little bit (really a little bit) more and get MUCH higher quality from these guys!

I could tell right away this ignition circuit board is made of comparable materials from my original. I had put another cheaper brand in and it did not work and sent it back. But right after installing this one, the HEAT is on! Yay.

When I searched and located the part I'm glad I looked deeper into "more information" because it gave the measurements and I had the smaller one of the main option given and if I didn't click on more info I would have had the correct Part and wrong dimensions. Quick and easy installation, I now have heat in my camper.

Only issue was Amazon packaging.!! Stuffed in a mail envelope with no padding, envelope looked like UPS had played football with it. Somehow it survived with the bit of bubble wrap in it's box. I was relieved when I installed the circuit board in my furnace and it worked and I had a working furnace in my camper again.
