Water heater doesn’t turn on
The water heater switch does not turn on the red light to ignite the water heater. Fuse is ok. Any suggestions? It’s a 2014 sport with an Atwood G6A-8E.

Step one is to check all the connections on the water heater, especially the wires leading to the thermostat and ECO. They tend to corrode and sometimes a little wiggle will get things going.

Red light turns on, then tries to fire the water heater. When the start fails, the system retries.

Check power at the board, possibly need a Dinosaur board.
