Patio Light


Recommended Posts

Midway down the passenger side of our Executive is a dual tube florescent light. What interior switch controls this light? It has a push button on/off switch on it that would require a ladder to operate. It does not respond to the button. Before I try replacing the tubes, I want to know what controls it.  Thanks

There is a switch that controls the outside light near the door. Is that supposed to also control the light I'm referring to midway down the passenger side?

Sorry, I did not read your message clearly.  I have not seen a light in that area on an Executive.  Is it painted to match or look like original equipment?  I suspect it is wired in by a prior owner.  I have added a string of LED lights under my awning that are controlled by remote.  You might check inside the basement for a switch, or inside the cabinets on the inside near where the light is located.  Last thing perhaps it is wired into the docking lights.  I have recently found a fox and hound toner to be very helpful in tracking down wiring and now consider that an essential tool to have for an RV.

This is what I have. It looks OEM. If it's aftermarket, they did a great installation, as the wiring is inside the wall. It's as though it was installed by Monaco when built, as there is no access from inside the coach. I am hoping the two florescent tubes are bad for an easy fix. Still no interior switch that I can find unless it's wired to the porch light next to the door.

It should be controlled by the switch to the right of the passenger seat. 

I had 2 lights on our 07 Executive. I ordered the coach with that light configuration and that switch was for both lights on/ off function.

Paul J A, both of my tube bulbs are good. Being florescent tubes, they should have a ballast to power them. Do you have an idea where it might be? The light is not something we would use very often, but I would like to have it working in the event we had a need.  Thanks
