It is possible that the wall mounting screws (especially the one near the on/off switch) are so tight from the factory that they somehow distort the body plastic of the thermostat and bind the movable arm of the on/off switch. Or it could already be broken or jammed with some other broken plastic bits or construction debris.

Thanks!
Yep - that’s mine and they’re having the same issue as I am. I’ve got to go outside tomorrow with my glasses, a screwdriver and a flashlight.
I’ll take the cover off and take a good look-see.
I posted a rookie question a few days ago about replacing it with a programmable digital one.
It’s amazing - with what they charge for these RVs you’d think they’d put in a programmable one in the bedrooms. Geesch....
