wave 3 heater

HI I have a wave 3 heater in my northern -lite 10' 2 camper its sits near the door
it has only been used a few times . thought i would try it today as its a new camper.
temp out side was 36 degrees turn it on high for a few hours and the pad seems to only glow a quarter of the way up the pad. Just wondering if the hole pad should be glowing It failed to heat camper only went up to about 42 degrees. So i am just wondering if the pads are bad.
thanks

    I have a Wave 3 as does a friend. We looked at both of them this year in Quartzsite because he thought maybe his was not making heat as it used to. Both were identical, probably 1/3 of the pad.

    The entire pad should be lit. The pads are not cheap, about $100 as I recall. I suggest you call thier tech support Monday. They will instruct you on how to troubleshoot.
