Mystery Switch

Does anyone recognise the switch below? It appears to go nothing at all, but does anyone recognise it as a switch off anything specific or just a generic switch?

Is it for the 240V electric elements in the Truma heater, for the water and blown air heating?

That was my first thought, but it’s a gas only combi 4. Doesn’t effect the heating performance at all.

In that case they probably fitted the switch to fill the hole in the 'wrong' fascia panel.

I’ll pop it out tomorrow and see if it’s wired to anything. I’ve got an awning light to install. At least it would save me a switch!

Could be the waste tank heater

Looks like the gas crash isolater solenoid switch. It needs to be turned on to allow gas to flow from the regulator. If the solenoid is still fitted then you can travel with the gas heating on but sometimes they are removed when regulators are changed.

Not checked that yet, could be an option. It doesn’t light up though.

This crossed my mind, there’s no crash protect on the regulator, but it might be from an previously installed one

Certainly looks like an addon switch to me. OE would look much more like existing fitments.
