Title: Mystery Switch
Post by: redwing on February 25, 2015, 06:37:52 pm
I have a 2002 U320 Model AGDS coach
It has on the kitchen wall a switch with no indication as to what it might be for. It turns on and has a red light on it when on
This Coach does not have insta hot water dispenser, all other switches are accounted for as for there purpose
This is the only switch that has a red light , all the others are with green lights
I hope someone will have the answer.

I do not have instant hot water either but have a switch for it.  I would look at the back side of the switch nd see if you can get a wire number off the wire and track it that way in your documents.

Thank you for your response , The wires however come across the sink then towards the window down the outside wall and meet up with a bundle of other wires and head towards the back .

I'll take a stab at it.  If you turn it on and the red light comes on after 30 or so seconds does the water pump come on if the water pump switch is on also?  If so the previous owner may have added a hot water warm up system. The switch would open a valve and recirculate water back to the water tank to save water.  Several of us who dry camp have a system like that. Our switch is located in the bathroom vanity.

Rob, after giving it more thought, When I said something has to be connected to it for the red light to be on, I was wrong.
The red light is getting the power right at the switch even though nothing is connected to it. So the previous owner Al Miller is probably correct. It was for the hot water dispenser. Mystery solved  8)
