electric toggle switch on inside side wall

I just picked up a 2008 T@B TQ. there is an electric switch on the left front inside wall near the electrical outlet that is also there (110). I have no idea what the switch controls. I would appreciate any info.

Can you post a pic, or more specifically describe the location?

My 2015 has toggle switches to control the water pump, inside light, outside light, and vent fan for the air conditioner.

it is located to the left of the blue goblet  and under the light in the attached pic. this pic shows the receptacle but not the switch. the switch is right under the receptacle. does not seem to operate lights in or out (they all have their own on-off switches).

Given the location, I'd say it's probably the water pump. The pump is used to draw water from the onboard tank when you are not connected to city water. When the pump is "on" it only runs as needed to maintain pressure at the sink.

I hope this helps. I'm not real familiar with the older Dutchman-vintage T@Bs, so maybe someone else can confirm if this is the pump.

@aquamous, Is the switch to turn off the stereo to avoid a phantom draw perhaps? Or is it for the water pump?

aquamous

thanks guys. i will investigate further.

@aquamous, You're welcome. Please let us know what you find, as it might help someone else with the same circumstances.

I'm almost positive it is the switch for the water pump.

Is this what it looks like?
