Main switch panel has only water pump switch. Fuse panel, also has nothing marked for hot water. I read you need to kill power to hot water heater, before running a flush of water with bleach through the system. I bought this trailer used, trying to learn basic maintenance. Thanks
 
There should be a switch with a pilot lite. Where? Mine is on the kitchen cabnet.
 
You must have a switch for the water heater. Otherwise you could wreck it if the heater is running when it's not full of water.
 
Have you checked in the immediate vicinity of the heater, itself? There may be a service switch located there.

On my rig I have a switch to turn the gas on for the hot water heater, but nothing for the electric side. I had to find it on my breaker panel to shut it off.
