Craig, that makes sense, I guess. It would allow you to set a range and not go above or below and do so with only one thermostat.

Chantel & Mike, the low/high switch in my bath works. I suspect it connects either two or four bulbs in the fixtures. I also have switches for the bathroom fan, light, and water pump for a total of four.

I don't know if your vanity lights are the same as ours: we have 3 on each side of the medecine cabinet (framing it vertically). Total of 6 bare vanity bulbs, 13w each. It's crazy to have that much wattage without at least one low setting.
We have a switch for the water pump and one for the water heater.
The bathroom fan is on ceiling of the shower stall. Little rotary switch.

Talking of switches:

The book mentions that the 2 ceiling lights in the kitchen/living room operate with wall switch (OK), and the diagram shows an extra switch at the fixtures themselves.
New mystery: the front light (the one with the fan), does not have it. BUT: the other one has a switch. It is wired, but doesn't do anything. Any idea ?

The more I read the book, the less I learn. What I have learned is the book seems to be a mishmash of facts & fiction.

According to the book the fan switch in the bathroom is over the sink. FAULSE: it's on the ceiling.

3 of the drain valves on the 32' are supposed to be under the microwave. NO: haven't found them yet (only the one under the bed).

We have just discovered a 12v fluorescent tube, hidden over the bathroom sink. Cannot find the switch for it. Was it added?

The book mentions some kind of switch to make sure you do not turn on the microwave and the AC at the same time: don't need it, but cannot find it either.

I mentioned earlier the small electric water heater (0.5 gallons), under the kitchen sink. The one the dealer said was added by the previous owner. He would have been smart to keep his mouth shut: it's in the book as an option.

As we look more closely, we discover more and more mysteries. Life was so much simpler with our 1974: we didn't have the book, so we still don't know what we may have missed.

"The book mentions some kind of switch to make sure you do not turn on the microwave and the AC at the same time: don't need it, but cannot find it either"

look in your kitchen cabinet above the sink for this one.

that is where it is located in my '92 excella.

Bathroom Light switches

Chantel & Mike
I was out at the trailer today and realized I have three switches in the bathroom. Light (hi/lo center offf) fan and pump. I have not looked inside the fixtures to see just how many bulbs are there.

This should be off the low side of the hi/low switch in the bath.
