Steve CastnerWhat's that Switch???
Can anybody identify the over-the-door toggle switch with indicator light? Past posts have referred to water tank electric blanket and off-on switch for electric side of water heater.
Note that adjacent switch panel has a switch on far right for WATER HEATER.
Photo attached.
Thanks much.

Nick CagleSteve, I have 3 of that type switches in my coach. They all have something to do with 120V HEAT. On my coach the one over the door turns on a duplex outlet under the couch. Plugged in to that outlet is a 120V heater fan located in the water compartment. The heater fan is thermostatically controlled. The other two switches of that type are one over the drivers seat that controls the engine block heater and one on the kitchen cabinets that controls a 120V element in the hot water heater.

OK, Nick, I'm guessing this one controls the fan heater in the water compartment because I do have one of those. (It hasn't been cold enough to activate the thermostat switch in the fan compartment.)
I will also root around for the hot water AC switch, but haven't found one yet.
The engine block heater switch is a mystery. The only two toggles over the drivers seat are for 1) the isle lights and 2) a blower fan that pulls warm air from the cabin into the water compartment below.

sk8er32283I have a switch for the electric water heater above my door. It is connected to an outlet on the ceiling of the water compartment that can be ajusted. Try ajusting the thermostat if you have one to get things figured out.
