switch under bed in 19?

There's a BIG toggle switch under the bed on the port (left) side near the front of this compartment. Can't figure out what it does? clues? It looks factory and I don't believe the previous owner put it in. TIA.

It *looks* like the power shutoff switch, but I doubt it unless your batteries are in the back.

I don't think the 12V tank heaters were an option in 2010.

It *could* be a 110V water heater switch (if you have the 2 way water heater.)

Lots of guesses. Does it switch 110V or 12V wire? Can you see what the wires go to, or at least the direction they head in? Any clues in the power distribution center from the fuse/breaker labels? What happens when you toggle it? Can you ask the previous owners?

Which was the switch to turn on the heat pads however, with out being able to see more of the wiring I do not know if it is or not. Best bet call original owner, ETI and find out what options were installed.

yeah it has the heat pads as an option. it's 12V wiring. I will go source it out, just figured I'd see if anyone might have a quick answer while I ate lunch!
