Your water heater has two methods of heating water...electric and gas. The "toggle" switch you asked about turns on the electric watwer heater element. The black switch with the red light turns on the gas. If the red light turns on, then the burner failed to light. Turn it off wait and the turn back on. You can use either or both to heat your water.

To use the electric my WH has an on/off switch on the outside also (along with that one on the inside), that has a pin in it to make sure it isn't switched by mistake. Just take off the outside panel and look around.

Thanks!

There is another switch with a black back panel and a red light. This one seems to turn on the water heater. The toggle to which I refer looks like a normal house type toggle switch. The water heater seems to work with this latter switch in the off position, It is marked off and on. The up position is on...

Ahh! Got it now! I'll give it a try, but I bet it is the 110V switch. Many thanks for all of your expertise and assistance!!!

On my 2002 Fox the switch started the gas side of the water heater. Light on, it was burning. Light off water hot.

if it is the110 switch you are talking about it turns the 110 on for the water heater

I've never seen one that came from the factory that way. I changed the factory switch to one that is illuminated when ON (vrs OFF) on both th 99 and 2012

To the OP, never turn that switch on, except then you have the water-heater full.

Turns on the water heater. Does it have a red light?
