So I came home today from work and went right into the building where my montana lives. Disconnected the power cord. Took off the water heater cover and removed the switch and its 2 wires. Plug the camper back in to check for voltage and I get nothing. Go inside and turn on the inside switch and get nothing. Thinking WTF it worked on shore power a few weeks ago what gives. Went into house to get a cold beverage and discover the power is out. LOL. Well that explains why I was not getting anything on the meter.

I few hours later the power comes back on. I check again with the inside switch in the off position and I get nothing (thinking I was going to get 12 volts. I turn on the inside switch and check again and low and behold I get 120 volts like several of you guys said it was.

So I take back all my previous posts being very adamant about it being 12 volts. I was dead wrong which I clearly admit. Sorry

So the 12 volt inside switch apparently sends 12 volts to a relay that sends 120 volts to the switch on the outside of the heater that sends 120 volts to the element when that switch is turned on.
