    Blue Light Special - Not

    When we 1st brought our 2600RB Imagine home and plugged in, the little blue light on the flip up cap at the plug in illuminated. Not anymore. No problems with the electric or anything, just no power indicator. I'm hesitant to start messing around with the cap. Any ideas?

    The led probably burned out.

    Hmm. That's what I figured, but changing it may be an ordeal. I'm no expert in fixing stuff.

    Depends on how important it is to you. If you get power, I would just leave it.

    Yep, the led indicator doesn't live long at all... A surge protector is a better indicator.

    Mine burned out shortly after we took delivery, the blue LEDs on the power cord are also dead, no worries, everything still works without them.

    What? Leds burned out so soon?

    Aren’t they supposed to have a very long lifetime (anywhere between 10,000-50,000 hours)?

    At least that’s the propoganda that was used to justify outlawing incandescent and flourescent bulbs.

    Same thing occured on our GD camper. Their are very light gauge wires that supply power to the two LED's. The motion of closing and opening the recepticle cover compromised the wire integrity. Fixed it once, than it occured again so I just left it with the LED's not working.

    As someone else posted a surge protector/power monitor is a very good idea.
