I am assuming your 202 does not have a wet bath with a hand held shower head attached to the bathroom faucet.  Also I am assuming that you have never had hot water to the shower head.  If both of those assumptions are true then you could start looking at the hot water feed line to have some sort of blockage in it from the assembly process.  I would start where the hot water feed line tees off the hot water feed line to the bathroom and check all the breaks in the line (connections) for blockage up to the faucet.  Hope this helps.]]> Tue, 14 Sep 2021 18:41:27 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14643&PID=145131#145131 No hot water : I replaced the shower head and... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14643&PID=145130#145130 Author: Bogart80

Our setup, which may be similar to yours is there is a hookup at the end of the faucet that leads to your shower head.  Since you get hot water at the faucet but none at shower head the only thing between that would be a diverter valve in the head itself that is not functioning properly.  If that is the case replace the shower head.

Another thing to remember is to make sure you have water in your hot water tank before turning on your electric water heater! Test first as la stated above, before turning electric water heater on to prevent damage to electrical heater element. Another thing I learned here. :-)

Make sure your winter bypass valves are set for summer.

I assume you are getting cold water out of the hot water faucets rather than no water at all?

Are you on shore power? If so, there is a partially hidden switch behind the water heater panel on the outside of the trailer. Switch that on and also be sure the water heater breaker in the electric panel is on. Then wait a bit.

If you are not on shore power then confirm propane is getting to your other appliances. Turn on the water heater switch on the wall panel. Outside you should be able to hear the igniter try light the burner and feel heat from the burner if it ignites. If not check your 12v fuses. If that doesn't work then it gets more involved. There is a troubleshooting manual here

We have a RPod 180.  This is our first time out camping this season and we have no hot water.  Any ideas?  Suggestions?  
Thanks,
