porch light
I can't figure out how I can shut off the porch light next to my camper door. I've looked all over for an on/off switch, but it's not in an obvious place. Can anyone tell me where it might be? I have a 2004 Tow lite, 22'. Just purchased it 3 months ago.
Thanks in advance for your help. Ken |
My 2408T has a switch for this light under the upper cabinets that are next to the door. The switch is mounted horizontally on the underside of the cabinet. Your trailer may have something similar.
|
thats also where mine are.
I accidentally discovered I had a porch lite while sitting on the camper floor and looking up ...hmmm, what's that switch doing hiding on the bottom of a cabinet?
grammer: mine are/ mine was |
We have switches on both the light and under the cabinet. So if you try to turn the light on from under the cabinet and it doesn't light check the outside switch to be sure it is turned on.

Light on
Has to be said,, that's one good battery, if you have owned that hilo for three months and that light has been on all of this time.
Good Luck with it. Later Tim 69hilo |
I just checked my outdoor light ...
I didn't see a switch, but ...
even on my tippie toes I couldn't touch this light. |
If there is a switch it should be on the underside. Similar to this:Porch Lights from Bargman RV for Sale - PPL Motor Homes

can you reach
this outside porch light switch?
|
I can reach it if I am standing in the doorway or when the top is down.

This is where my light switch is. (look for the black arrow) Right when you walk through the door, it should be under the left cabinet.

switch
LOL I found the switch before I found the arrow. Any rate Thanks for sharing this pic.
Later Tim |
I too had trouble finding it
and the arrow; please note, yours is to the left (as you enter) but mine is to the right.
Also, yours appears to be a toggle switch. Mine is a rocker. |
I've got 2201 and that is about where mine is located, also. just another rocker switch on the cabinet or upper wall on curbside rear half next to door.

How can you have a rocker switch for a light?
Because mine Rocks!
The Stones, the Dorrs, CCR, Janice, J Airplane, etc ... |
Counting them up, there are fourteen rocker switches in/on our 2310H, and Rock'n'Roll on the radio.

I'm fortunate here
in that my local radio station plays only oldies/ WOAB, 104.9, And in the truck I can get another excellent station that's about 30 miles away. It's almost always on during the daytime.
One of their ads exclaims that WOAB stands for Wow, oldies are back. This link pre-dates me, but is most worthy of that definition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qafnJ6mRbgk I have no idea how many switches I have. |
I wonder if ...
I scared off the original poster to this topic, I see that he's not been back.
Hey Ken, come on back, I'm mostly harmless. |
Rocker porch light switch
When you enter our HiLo we have a set of rocker switches under the cabinet. One switch turns on a lampshade style interior light. The other switch never worked for twenty yrs. In the course of our restoration we had to remove staples and lift up the thin cupboard bottom. DH correctly wired the rocker switch and it now works. It turns off the porch light from the inside. The only problem is we forget it now works properly. The bundles of wire were there just wired wrong at the factory.

thanks for the feedback
Thanks everyone for your feedback. I found the porch light switch underneath the cabinet.
|
Didn't it make you feel a little silly once you found it?
|
When I discovered mine
my thoughts were that's a stupid place for the switch and wondered why it wasn't mounted on an entry wall just inside the steps?
|
The only reason I can think it is that the switch and wiring was concealed for protection inside the cabinet between the inside and underside layers of wood, like the wiring for the stereo is in many models. A more visible spot would be handy.
