Title: Curious - interior lights not working
Post by: leslie on January 06, 2015, 10:14:26 PM
OK, my Camplite is out of storage and I am working my way south. I have only been in the camper during daylight, so I haven't turned on an interior light for several weeks. Tonight, radio works, exterior light turns on, but no interior lights will turn on. Will I have to take each interior light apart to look for a problem?

Out 14DBS has a master light switch near the door that must be ON before the ceiling fixtures will go on. They each have a switch on the fixture for off/1 light/2 bulbs. Your 21BFG may be different.

The light over the sink, and the bathroom, or crapper if you will, is independent.

After that, I guess you are checking fuses.

Master light switch? Oh, the things nobody told me... or maybe I don't have one? I will check.

I thought the same thing. I was going to respond to her with "It's right next to your slideout switch..." and then I thought *wait... she doesn't even have a slideout... nevermind*

Thanks so much for the help. The switch is next to the 120 volt outlet on the left as I come into the trailer. All the lights are working.
