Start by bypassing the pressure switch. If the heater heats with it bypassed the switch may be bad. If it still does not heat chack and make sure you are getting power from the relay to the heater element. Also check your grounds for the relay and the heater element.

Look at your fuse. More than likely you piggy backed off of something else when you ran the heater and that it blew. If that is it go bigger. Always keep an extra with you. The extra weight won't slow you down too much

Dave,
How do you bypass the pressure switch? Will doing this make it to where I can turn it on of off no matter what the pressure is?

Thanks,
Tony
