Okay, so the water heater was indeed bypassed. (Had to unscrew an access panel to see the other side of the unit.) Turned the gas heater on and water was getting warmer after a few minutes. Now trying the electric. Hope I didn't burn out the element previously. Just curious, what's the default mode if both switches are on?
If both switches are on, BOTH modes are on (Gas/Electric). Some folks do that while plugged into shore power for faster recovery (multiple showers comes to mind)
Normally you'd only have one of the two switches on.
