actually, the switch only needs to be on when using electric to heat your water. If it won't physically switch to "on", look for a small pin thru the handle. Remove (and save) the pin.
Also, the red light in the coach does NOT indicate if the protective circuit breaker in the compartment is on or off. The red light will come on any time you turn that switch on (and your water won't heat) - makes sense, eh?
To repeat GStream40's warning,,, never apply power to the electric element with no water in the tank - they say: "phffffft" in a very short time.
