switch for water heater

Hi Guys. My '06 28FKS has the propane/electric feature on the Atwood water heater. When I flip the rocker switch for electric operation, the switch does not light up as the lp and water pump switches light up when turned on. The water heats in the tank ok. Does it sound like the led is gone in the rocker switch or is there criteria not met for the switch to illuminate? Thanks for your time. Love my Jayco.

If the water is heating its ok, but I would change the switch, so you dont forget its on sometime

Ironic. Ours went out the last couple of days on our last trip. We have to take tt in for warranty stuff later, so will just let them replace it. Do you have a check-off list for when you break camp? Add those rocker switches to it as a double check system to make sure it is off while waiting to get it fixed

Talking rocker switch

Picked up the $12.00 rocker switch from my rv dude today and snapped it in. All is well. LED portion now lights up. Thanks for the info from all .
