When we connect to shore power the circuit breaker for the 110V water heater trips immediately, even with the switch on the inside switch panel turned off. When I turn this switch on (circuit breaker still tripped), the LED in the switch illuminates (although rather dimly), but it does go off completely when the switch is turned off. I had read that some newer trailers have just 12V connected to the switch in the panel and then a relay to actually switch 110 to the heater. I've tried removing the switch panel but can only get it out far enough that I can see no relay here, maybe it's mounted somewhere else? I've been searching through the various threads and user guides for wiring details but haven't found any reference to a relay for the water heater. We are still within warranty but miles from any dealers (Bridgeport, CA) so I am hoping with a little more information I can get this fixed myself. Thanks, Jim
