It's obviously a 120 volt switch with pilot light. Might it be for the engine block heater on that year and model with a Freightliner chassis?

Or, maybe an ejection seat for the toilet.

My guess is that it is engine pre-heat. Just a guess.

I have the same thing in mine and I found it went to the outside outlet up by the awning for awning lights.

Does the Insignia have an electric element in the hot water heater? The Travel Supreme had the same switch setup and it was for the HW heater.

I thought it was the water heater too...but the switch on the left with the red light is labeled water heater. We pick it up tomorrow hopefully we can figure it out.
I like all the ideas so far..thank you for your help.

Probably the A/C side of the water heater. Both of mine are in the same compartment.

The left side probably is the LP and the other one is electric. That is exactly the switches the TS had.

Be sure to have water the the heater tank before you flip the switch or it will burn the element out. Don't ask me how I know that one I use to drain my HW heater tank after every trip then put a piece of masking tape over the switch until the HW tank had water in it again.
