I found my water heater output too hot, scalding hot! The problem is the temperature sensing element is mounted on the outside surface, not immersed like a domestic tank. The element set range is too high for this application by itself. I used a piece of foil backed duct insulation attached with aluminum heat tape to cover the end of the tank where the element is. It now controls the temperature at a safer range.

Solved, the hot water heater 3 way bypass valve in the trailer, over the hot water heater in a cabinet. The center mixing valve was open. Thanks everyone.
