Mysterious Items in Bedroom Cabinet!!! 1993 Wanderlodge, WLWB

I think that the rheostat does control a fan for the heating system. I
didn't think that there was a fan in the bedroom until I fired up the
heating system about two weeks ago. If you look to the right on the water
filter under your bed you should see a snap disc just to the right of it. I
have a fan hidden just to the right of that snap disc. I can hear it click
then the fan turns on. I didn't know what controlled the fan but my guess
is your mystery rheostat does.

two sets of convection fans. One set under the couch and the other under
the bath vanity. They both were designed with a sensor about the size of
a quarter with a pin in the center strapped to a rubber hose that causes
the rheostat to operate when the system is up to temperature. If the
sensor fails, the fans do not work. My couch fans work when the system
is activated. The bath fans work when the system is up to temp. When the
bath sensor fails, I will bypass it and send the power direct to the
rheostat since the temperature rises rapidly. Something less to fail in
the future. If that rheostat does not dim lights it must be associated
with the heating system.

Are the incoming leg one and two main breakers in that box? It's hard to
believe the main breakers would be seperated from the panel.

Howdy, Leroy.
Thanks for the reply. The battery heater circuit breakers are on the
MAIN circuit beaker panel which is located in another cabinet in our
bedroom. My SWAG is that the mysterious circuit breaker box is for the
hydronic heating system(Webasto). I understand that your coach has the
Webasto hydronic heat, also. I 'll email you about that as I have some
questions about it.

Thanks again,
Jack
