Sunseeker driver’s side light

Anyone know how to turn off the outside drivers side light? It’s always on when plugged in and can bother neighbors. Thanks Steve

Basic Answer: Exterior Lights Are 12v. Should not matter if you are plugged in or not.

Now, if you would like to share your model I’m sure we can find some specific help. Kind of like the DDS telling you to prep the tooth for extraction.

Our Lexi also has an outside light, drivers side. Its controlled by the same rocker switch on the panel as pictured in Duckogram's photo. Even labeled the same.

I don't know why FR didn't use an illuminated switch on the panel to indicate that it's on. We have taken our dog out for a late night potty break and have forgotten to shut it off. Only realize it's been on all night the next morning when walking outside. Thankfully, no one has ever complained. Doesn't help the battery bank either.
I'm looking into replacing the switch with an illuminated one and will post it my findings if anyone is interested.
Also, I guess they are calling this light the scare light.

I’m always interested in a good idea. Fire away.
