    LED lights in bedroom

    I have a blinking light in my bedroom. I went to pull it out so I could see what lamp I needed & the LED is soldered to the fixture. Do I have to replace the whole thing?

    If you're talking about the 4.5" ceiling lights that look like these:

    ...Yes, you will need to replace the entire light fixture. We've had more than a dozen of these lights fail in our 2020 Solitude.

    When I replace the lights, I use these connectors:

    Then, when the replacement light fails, it only takes 15 seconds to replace it again

    Haha nice job! It's weird that basically all of yours went out though, talk about a bad batch! The only lights I've had go out are my eyeballs every time I bang my head on the ###%&&* bedroom slide when I leave the Nautilus panel lol.

    If your camper is still within warranty call GD. I had a few lights go out shortly after delivery and GD sent me some new ones.

    And Brian and I have both had the replacements that GD sent fail, too. We've had the best luck with the ones Brian linked to.

    Does anyone know where one can purchase the bedroom sconce on each side of the bed? I have the 2018 reflection 28bh and I can't seem to find the product on amazon QAI RVSMD-LF-140726N-223. Mine is flickering on one side. thanks for any help! I can also attest to the puck LED lights on the amazon link. I've replaced one already in my bathroom and it is working fine now. Mine was 4.5in

    I had the same problem with my 2019 28BH reflection and was outside my warranty. I ended up going through my dealer to order replacements directly from Grand Design. The Part# from Grand Design is 420387, 4.5" LED PUCK LIGHT. I looked at the version on amazon but realized the mousetrap dome light specified there required a 3 1/4 inch cut out while my unit only had a 2 1/2 inch cut out. I could have made it work but would have had to increase the hole cut out. The unit from Grand Design was an identical replacement and made the install easy. The cost for light was reasonable at $14.75 a unit and I also order an extra unit. The issue was the shipping cost. I had to pay the shipping from Grand Design to my dealer and then to my resistance. They would not drop ship directly to my house. So, the shipping costs was approximately $25. Other than the shipping cost I've been pleased with the replacement unit.
