    Led lights wont come on?

    The led strip under the awning won't come on. Red rocker switch is on the control panel but lights don't come on. Does anyone have any ideas?

    No idea what model you have but in my panel the red rocker switch is either water pump or HW heater IIRC. My awning lights are just a solid black rocker switch.

    There is an inline fuse for the awning lights behind the switch panel downstream from the switch. Pop the trim ring and 6 screws to remove the panel from the wall. Check fuse and check for 12 volts at the switch. If fuse is good, and you have 12 volts, time to talk to dealer about warranty work on the strip or wiring between switch and light strip that is hard to access. There is a Youtube video on installing a dimmer for the awning lights, it shows the removal of the panel and shows the fuse.

    Took faceplate off and the rocker switchhas no. Wires to it. Two loose wires and switch contacts are. Missing. Will have to do d a replace me t switch which presumably has two contacts for the loose wires. They have the slip on attachments just no switch contacts to attach them to. W/o see who carries them. Could replace with the little summer in the video. At least now I have an explanation!

    JUst picked up the correct mini rocker switch, slipped the contacts onto the switch posts and put it all back together and now i have exterior lights. Should hve caught this in the walk through, oviously was not as thorough as i hould have been. All is well.
