Replaced Wall Switch with Dimmer

[FlyStar]

Easy mod. Replaced bunk room light switch with a dimmer switch. Just had to make the opening about 1/8” wider. You need to find the ground for the light circuit. Fortunately, the wire run is a double wire like a lamp cord, so easy to find the ground. Works great.

Switch I used:

American Technology Components 12 Volt DC Dimmer Switch for LED, Halogen, Incandescent - RV, Auto, Truck, Marine, and Strip Lighting (Slider, Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079TJTP1W...38E7E63D?psc=1

Any idea if this switch could be used for any of the lights, ie wether or not all of the super bright OEM lights would be dimmable with this switch? We’ve agonized over the bright “reading lights” over the bed and the lights over the table ever since we got the trailer.[emoji30]

Yes. This switch will work for
Any lights with a wall switch except for those controlled by “One Connect”. You have to fish out both the power and ground wires. This is usually easy because wiring is double conductor cables.
