Try it at night, most people find them to bright and put dimmer on.

I’m hoping it’s easy to replace them. Not real sure how they come out of the awning channel.

That happened to mine last year, a section of about 6-8 LED's stopped lighting up. My dealer replaced the entire strip under warranty. You didn't list your year and model trailer but you may be able to get GD to help with it.

I replaced the led strip and all was working great. About 3 weeks later there’s nothing. I was able to check and there is no voltage at the lights or where the cable comes through the side of the camper. The indicator light on my panel lights up but no power on the outside. Does anyone know if there is a fuse behind the panel that can be accessed?

Try contacting the manufacturer. Mine did much the same thing. This summer I contacted Carefree as I needed those and some end caps. They were super helpful. The replacement is actually quite easy with their included instructions. You need to be careful to keep the camper plug from dropping inside of the tube. The replacements came with an adhesive backing and a glue removal alcohol pad. So far so good and its nice to have a full set of lights again.

On our 2015 Solitude there is an in-line fuse behind the control panel. Our awning lights were out when we bought it and I discovered this fuse. I am sure it was a 2 amp but I replaced it with a 3 amp because the 2 amp fuse kept blowing out. I have had no more problems with it in three years. Dealer tech had no idea there was a fuse behind the panel.
