    Led Strip Lights not working

    Ihave a Solitude with two Carefree awnings with led strip lights installed. They recently just shut off for no apparent reason. They are operated with one switch inside the camper. Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting?

    Thanks,

    George

    Most of the time this relates back to a 2 amp fuse located behind the awning light switch. Not on the regular fuse panel. I would check this out. Good odds this where your problem is.

    Amongst all the paper the owner receives with their GDRV, is there a listing all the fuse locations? Having (lots of?) hidden fuses will make maintaining a unit difficult. We don't get ours until March.

    Had the same problem. Called GD customer service and they told me where to find the fuse (behind the switch panel). I replaced it with a 3amp. (because that's all I had) and it worked. I'll keep a close eye on it and change it back to 2amp soon. We do not use the strip light much.

    I had same issue with my Imagine. Replaced the 2 amp fuse with a 3 amp and never had a problem after that. IMHO the 2 amp fuse is undersized.
