It sounds like the Camco Propane to Electricity Converter for 6-Gallon RV Water Heaters # CAM11673 was hooked up incorrectly.

I believe this to be the case since the switch is supposed to be on the entire time, and since it's not staying on all the time, then there must be a wiring issue.

I recommend going through the wiring and make sure everything is hooked up correctly. I've attached the directions for you to check out again and to verify that everything is hooked up properly.
