On the baseboad of the drivers side couch on a 1986 PT 38 there are two small switches side by side. One is off & on and the other hi & low. Same set up in bedroom of coach. Anyone know what they are for? seems to me they sould be nite lite switches but the only way I can turn on the nite lites is a switch over the rear bed that has the lable nite lite.

I'm not sure but I think the switches you are refering to are for the coach hot water heat, this is the heaters that use hot water from the engine to heat the coach

Those switches are for the heating system that runs off the engine hot water. There are likely one or two more similar heaters along the length of the coach, likely one in the kitchen and then one back in the bedroom. To use the system, you have to have the engine warmed up, turn the "Summer/Winter" switch to "Winter" (on O/H dash Panel) turn the main "Front Heat" switch on, then set the room thermostats to "heat" and "on" and to an appropriate temp. If all that is set up, these heaters will run and heat the coach while you are driving. At least that's how it works on my 87 Forward Control.
