It would if we knew year/make/model of RV, since the OP doesn't list on the sign line.

If it has a pilot it sounds like an older system that is heat only. If the air temperature is above the thermostat setting and the furnace is trying to run there is probably a short in the control wiring.

It depends on how it's wired George.
I've seen this very scenario on here before.

Make sure the "Fan" switch is set to "Auto" and NOT "On".
