Not sure what you have, but on mine there is a panel on the wall that says water heater pilot of and on switch. You turn the pilot light on and when the red light goes out, that means your water heater is running on propane. If you have it off and want to use electricity, THEN you go to an electric switch with a red light on it. When you turn the switch on and the light goes on, that means you are heating up the water heater with electricity.
We use the electric mode all the time when on full hook ups.
True, but if you have NO 120 available or the 120 element is bad, the light will still light up. There is NO indication on 120 Water heaters(Suburban and Atwood) that let you know if there is a malfunction of the 120 element. Doug
