Mystery switches

Greetings everyone. Just purchased a 2013 19 foot Escape and in getting it setup I found two switches that look factory-installed located in the small cabinet above the microwave cabinet. I can't for the life of me figure out what they control. Any ideas what these are for? Thank you!

Welcome Charles,
Perhaps the previous owner can shed some insight? Pictures would also help.....us to help you!

Thanks Jim, the previous owner is a Casita owner and was selling the trailer for a friend that had passed, so wasn't that familiar with the particulars. I'll take a photo and try to post.

Pure speculation… Underbody heating pads?

They may have added fans to help cool the frig coils and the switchs power the fans. Just another guess.

Thanks Eddie, That's exactly it, went out there this morning and tried the switches. One controls the fan in the fridge and I'm guessing the other controls the fridge vent fan.
