Some, like mine, use small blue dot light next to the switch. It works the same way. Check to see if you have 12 volts for the control and ignighter. If it has been working and at some point you see the red light lit all the time, the WH is not working.

I understand it’s not a pilot. However if you look at the photo of the panel i provided it has an indicator light saying “pilot out” . Which I understand means the igniter didn’t lite.
That like that in your opinion should read “igniter not igniting” is not lighting up. It usually would light then try again and again a few time till the igniter lights the flame for the heater. My problem is, it’s not igniting.
I can check the 12volts I definitely haven’t done that yet. I’ll need to take that panel off to check the 12volts at the spot correct?
