Just purchased this 2020 trailer. Needless to say, it didn't come with an owners manual. Along with a whole host of other issues, I just realized that there's only one switch for the water heater. ...

Thanks 5picker. It turns out that the dealer is going to replace the entire nose cap. I assume that's a good solution? It's a new 2020 Heritage Ridge 24rks. Thanks much for your comments, John

I suggest the koa in Provo Utah, and the Snake River RV Campground in Idaho Falls. They're both open. We stayed at both a few days ago. Safe trip, John
