Subject: 1987 PT40 Switch under Kitchen Sink

Hi all,

I have a lighted 110v Switch under my kitchen sink that I'm not sure what it is for, any thoughts? Maybe the out side outlets, or heating holding tanks (if I have those...). The outside outlets kind of ring a bell, but it is COLD for Oregon, and if this turns on more heat tape etc., I'd like to know.

The AC load center has circuits for the holding tank heaters, does anyone know to verify if these are present, or if all birds of this vintage had them? I have the DC schematics, but no AC drawing.

I guess the folks who wrote the operator manual figured there were just too many switches and options to mention them all...

Regards,

Don

Don- I just checked with another '87 PT40 owner and he indicated that the lighted switch under the sink is for the Insta-hot dispenser. In my coach, there is an outlet in the wall under the sink for the insta-hot. You may be able to find an electric baseboard heater under your sink or behind your cabinets that could also be plugged in where the insta-hot is- in which case the lighted switch controls more than the insta-hot.

Like Shane said the lighted switch should be for the insta-hot water. If I remember correctly there is a plug under the sink with one of the plugs being powered from the invertor (thats the one the insta-hot plugs into. The other plug there is heat tape for the water lines plugged into it. There is also a small electric baseboard heater and thermostat under there that is hard wired in.
