    LED front cap light strip replacement

    Seeing if anyone has already had to replace their LED light strip on the front cap (see photo), does the wiring connection just pull out from inside the cap or do you have to access it some other way?

    Mine has had some of the LEDs white mixed in with the blue ones. Was going to contact GD about getting warranty replacements, but was curios what your fix was.

    I just had mine replaced under warranty while it was in for awning repairs. I called GD and they wouldnt send me new light strips, said the dealer had to replace them. My underside LEDs are now starting to do the same thing, at least those arent as noticeable. Any idea who makes the lights? They dont seem to be very good quality.

    Both of mine were replaced under warranty. I noticed issued at about a month old. Maybe was that way all along. I don't use them.

    They did ship them to me
    due to the long pull to dealership. The packages came labeled
    With GD part numbers so no way to identify the Mfgr. At least they have 3M tape. I hope they last longer. They take quite a beating from debris and bugs. Leaving for 3000 journey tomorrow so should be a good test.

    How did they plug in? I assume you can pull the connection through the hole in the cap and then push it back in when connected?

    There is plenty of lead behind the cap to pull the wires out to splice.
