Heated tanks

How could I tell if my 05 lance 920 has heated tanks or the four season package? I looked in all the paperwork and couldn't find it. I just bought it yesterday so I pretty much know nothing about it as of now. Thanks.
  • My tanks are heated also. They are completely enclosed and there is a heating duct into the compartment. Also a vent that opens into the living area from the tank area. That way the air can circulate.
  • Our heated tanks have 2 switches labled "Tanks".
  • mine is 4 season but doesn't have tank heaters, it just has ducting to the tanks. I'd check the windows, if it's got the 4 season package they'll be dual pane.
  • Might be a slight spin on mine. Mine says there are there but I don't know if they're working.

    With help from this forum I learned:
    - if you can visually inspect the tanks, you might see a pad and some electrical wires
    - if you can't then I've been looking for a voltage drop when I hit the On switch

    Since I don't see a drop, it could be
    - that my heaters don't work
    - or it's not cold enough for their thermocouples to allow them to come on
    - or they're 120V based and not 12V

    Sorry - that's the best I've got.
