2014 T270 - 2 switches to th right of fuse panel

and under the battery cut off. What are they for? They are not labeled, they look just like the rocker light switches on the rest of the trailer.

Great - thanks for the quick reply. Learning how this site works, lol
So if the top of the switch is flush with the wall - is it in the off position?

Keep an eye on those switches. I have had them turn on by accidentally hitting them with my foot. My dog has turned them on by leaning aginst them. They will run your batteries down.. I put a box over the top of them so they don't get hit.

My Wildcat is different... but I only have one switch for all tank heaters... ganged together. Also, my tank heater switch has a red light in it - so if it's on, you can tell by looking.

I don't know why they put them down by the floor. Why not put them on the wall with the other 75 unlabeled switches?lol And an indicator light would be nice.
