    Block heater relay location K2 chassis?

    Block heater outlet went dead last night while using it to power a small battery charger. Switch is good, breaker is good. I know there must be a relay cause the switch is just a 12V switch in the master panel. Any idea where the relay might be? Coach info in sig. TIA!

    Water heater warning

    I was quite surprised today when I pulled off the panel to access my water pump and found that my water heater was hot even though it was empty.
