I see references to a bypass switch on some RV models, but I cannot find any with my RV.

Any suggestions? pictures, web links, anything will help. It is a 2015 model, with the Ford chassis.

Thanks.

The water heater bypass will be on the back side of the water heater. It is normally accessed after removing a drawer or panel located inside the coach and in the proximity of the water heater.

You can check to see if there is water in the water heater by connecting a hose to a water supply and opening the pressure relief valve on the water heater. Do so with caution as the water may be hot. If there is no water in the water heater do not try using it on electric mode because it will burn out the heating element.
