Lighted Entry Handle

FR advertised a lighted entry handle in the sales brochure but when we got our rig it wasn't so. I have been following a post on here that let us know about the wires still being in a hole behind the entry handle. Sure enough I checked our 2013 and the wires were there. I bought sockets and bulbs. Now I need to know if anyone has connected one and which wires to splice into. there are several wires in the hole. The handle will illuminate when the isle lights are switched on. It would be a nice addition to our rigs. Thanks Frank

Won't be able to make it.... We have our house on the market so we need to stay close until that's a done deal....

Do plan on going to the Wisconsin rally and also to Goshen... Planning a 3-4 month trip this year which will include both.....

I know Craig will be there though.....

On my 2013 390RB I only had two wires in the bundle. There was alot of excess wire in there but it was only two colors. I just put butt connectors on them and attached my socket wires.

We will be at the Tampa show along with tmmar, phil57 and Craig (superchief). Hopefully we can all meet up some time. 3 of us are staying at a camp ground a few miles from the show. What is your schedule.

Ours was advertised as haveing the digital keypad entry but it came with the oldschool RV latches that have different keys for the front and back door.The back door is interesting as after its closed and locked or latched it will fly open w/o notice.I guess specifications changed w/o notice too.
