Momentum 29G control panel mystery switch

[Dave Fusinato]

Can anyone tell me what the unlabeled switch at the very top left of the control panel is for?

First, welcome to the forum. Great rig!

In your PDI did you go over the control panel?

Maybe an inverter switch? Maybe an additional lighting switch?

Have you tried the switch to see what it does?

Hope someone with a similar setup can help here.

Thank you. Yes, we went over the information and it is not listed at all. There is another inverter switch, so I am thinking that is not it, however, the inverter doesn't appear to be working so maybe that is it. Kind of afraid to try the switch not knowing at all what it does. Thanks for the compliment on the rig. Didn't have a very successful first outing. The water heater didn't work either. It's a learning curve, I am sure.

I understand the hesitation, but the fastest way between two points is a straight line. Hit the button and see what it does. [emoji15]

You would think they would label that. A sticker maybe . . .

 

[Redapple63]

I don’t think it came from the factory that way. I am willing to bet you have a dealer installed inverter and that is the remote on/off for it.

All the pictures I have seen have no switch there and the slide sticker is installed normal so it can be read directly. This has all the earmarks of dealer shenanigans.

At some point you have to hit the switch. Do it , Do it, Do it!

Threw switch. Nothing happened. Anyone? Anyone?

Do you have tank heaters?

 

[Dave Fusinato]

For winterizing the freshwater tanks? No. They did not indicate that. Being in central CA, not likely.

Mine was the outside "scare" light overtop of the gas pump at the driver side rear. Yours is almost certainly the same switch. I labelled mine myself.

Going to check this out . . . going over to storage right now to try that switch again.

 

[Thorvald]

Lol! I had the same issue during the day, then tried the switch at night... bingo!

Do you have tank heaters?

From everything we have gathered the G series travel trails only have "heated" underbelly (forced furnace heat). I wish they had tank heaters.

It's actually been a bit of a let down for us. We finally could afford a Momentum and my neighbors Imagine XLS (same year) has more bells and whistles that ours does (Compass Connect, furion solar with voltage display, etc). I'll be pissed if I find out they have tank heaters lol!

We also have a friend who just bought an Imagine. My hobby is flying RC jets so that is why I had to go with the toyhauler. Previous RV was 2009 Coast which has been absolutely trouble-free. The inverter appears not to work and the water heater doesn't work. Trying to troubleshoot since I can't get appointment with dealer until after my next event next weekend.

Thorvald wins the prize! Indeed the mystery switch IS the light over the fueling station area. Thank you! Never would have found that!

Glad this one was solved!

Just curious, does it energize the fuel station also or is it independent?

Independent, just controls the light.

However I like the light, may add one on the other side over the 25G outdoor kitchen which has no light…at all. Was boon-docking the other weekend at a Provincial Park and realized just how dark that area is (even with the shelf light inside).

It is for the O/D/S Exterior Light above the Fuel station
