[C320-list] water heater

[jpmesa at aol.com]

It is the circuit breakers my wife got a little confused.  We are hull #112. Being in S. Calif. we rarely use the hot water except after 
running the engine. In Catalina we use the solar shower. I believe it is from lack of using it and  the LA smog. I'll take it apart today and clean it up. 
Thanks, John & Bobbi   Holokai 2

Paul,

The switches on the panel are circuit breakers, of course, but on the "more 
mature" hulls, I recall that some breakers were the push to Reset types. My 
recollection is fuzzy on this part, but it does seem odd that the water heater 
doesn't have a way to disconnect it from AC other than the main breaker. 

John, is this the type of breaker you have?  Or are you talking about a breaker 
on the heater itself?

-Jeff

I'm stumped. On the main power panel you have three switches:
Hot Water Heater, Battery Charger, and outlets. All on the left
side. I don't under stand how it can be stuck and why you
can't get it "out". It shouldn't go in. It either goes left or right
not in and out.  Unless you have something I'm not familiar
with.

so how do you turn it off - I turned it on by pushing the button, but couldn't 
get it back out to turn it off.

The only on/off is the circuit breaker. It will stay hot for a very long time.

Hello.  We've never used the water heater before, and today I turned it on by 
using the circuit breaker. Now I can't turn it off.  Is there an on/off switch 
somewhere????  we don't want to keep it on. 



Please help
