IF the switch to the left is mirror controls I suspect that switch is mirror heat.

Yes, it is mirror heat, and no, I don't know why it isn't a labeled switch like all the rest of them.

I don’t own a Tiffin.....wish I did...
Is it a factory installed switch? Only another Tiffin owner of the same make and model might know for sure, but mirror heater sounds reasonable.

I have the same switch on my Newmar and I have seen it on WBGOs as well.
If I had to guess, I suspect Ramco furnishes the switch with the mirrors.

Sorry. I should have put that it was a 2010 Tiffin Allegro Bus. Someone told me I should have a button to turn on my high speed radiator fan. My thought was that all that was automatic or computerized But this button has always puzzled me. Never in the cold so can’t really try it

It's the mirror heat switch and "AITG" should win the prize for guessing why it is. I know that switch is used on both Newmar and Tiffin, and now it makes sense why, Ramco is supplying it with the mirrors.

Same exact thing on my Berkshire so I’m guessing it’s in use on several coaches. Being in the Northern tier of the country, we’ve used it a few times.

Could it be a drivers seat eject button? That would explain why it is unmarked.
Please be careful.

It's to eject the nagivator when she gets on you because you missed a turn that she didn't warn you about.

Never push the RED BUTTON. It’s like the option to reset your phone. Pushing the RED BUTTON will wipe out all of your prior camping experiences.

Mine says "Mirror Heat" above it.
If you have your lights on with the dash brightness up (assuming your panel lights still work) you might be able to read it - then again, two years after my MH, they may have forgotten to label the buttons! (I've got a 2008 36QSH)

I would like to replace mine with a rocker switch that matches all the rest of them but I can't find a drill bit that drills rectangular holes...
