It normally works and we get hot water back, but not for long, a few days to a week later, the switch needs to be used again. and normally I've noticed that the water gets really hot right before it does that. Now it's happened again, but this time, the red switch will not click or push in. Any help?
Hello, Aaron -
It is time to contact an authorized repair person for your make of water heater and repair the electrical fault with your water heater. Depending upon the age of your water heater, it may be time to purchase a new one.
According to the well-respected U.S. publication, Consumer Reports, which evaluates all kinds of products, the average life expectancy water heaters are:
- electric water heater: 11 years,
- gas water heater: 10 years
- tankless water heater: 20+ years

THIS ONE IS COMPLICATED ONE RELAY AND SO MANY PROBLEMS CAN CAUSE THIS PROBLEM
1) THE RELAY YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH ON THE FUSE BOX COVER THERE SHOULD BE A CHART OF WHAT FEEDS WHAT WHAT DOES THE LID SAY IT FEEDS
2) TRY PULLING THE FUSE TO THE SUN ROOF AND DOOR LOCKS AND REPLACE THE RELAY IF IT STAYS IN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ONE OR THE OTHER. THIS COULD BET A MOTOR PROBLEM ON THE SUN ROOF OR A DOOR LATCH PROBLEM.
WE WILL TAKE THIS ONE STEP AT A TIMEIF THIS DOES NOT WORK, E-MAIL ME AT [email protected]

I think your problem might be your fuel relay which is situated next to the fuse box in the engine compartment.
