Default Electric Water Heater Won't Turn On

We just returned from our second camping trip in our "new to us" 3124KB. Overall, we had another great time in the Trailmanor with the only problem being the fact that I couldn't get the electric water heater to turn on.

It worked fine on our first camp-out in August and I am fairly certain that I didn't dry fire the element when we returned, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I checked the breaker (it was on), I turned it off and back on, but no luck. I also made sure that the on/off switch on the water heater was on, but no luck. I have looked under the sink to ensure that no wires were knocked loose when storing items and could find nothing obvious.

The gas fired option worked great and we were able to generate hot water, but I really like having the electric water heater as well.

Are there any other obvious things to check that could be wrong? If I have dry fired the element, is there an easy way to tell?

Thanks!
