Front light is always on

[Tims29hfs]

My 29hfs just hit a year old, so far only minor problem that are easily fixed. Now my front light has water in it and one of the LEDs is constantly on, when I turn it on the one led just gets brighter, the other ones stay off. No big deal, I'll just order a new one, but I can't find it anywhere, guess I'm not looking in the right places. Anyone else have this problem, I'm worried it's going to drain my battery, it's always on.

I have had the same thing happen on my 2017 29hfs,now the push switch isn't working either. I'm still under warranty so I'll try and get them to replace it. If I can find any info on where to purchase them, I'll post it here. Obviously it's a poorly designed part, I've just kept my battery tender on for the winter figured I'd deal with it in the spring.

I'm still under warranty as well but don't feel the need to bring it to a dealer to fix one light, I'll see if they can send me one and let me do it myself.

Yes, that's my plan as well. My dealer is halfway across the country

I've watched this to see if anyone had any ideas on why the led was lit.
Non-electrician here, but, I like to think I understand power.

Bottom line, somehow that one led is getting enough power to light up. Where is that power coming from? I have seen a couple of reports that talk about "hot skin" and how dangerous that can be. Could your rig have a small short somewhere that is leaking enough current that is getting into the water you mention to power up the light? Or is this really not worth worrying about?

Inquiring minds need to know!

My guess is water got in the unit and destroyed all LEDs except one. The water in the switch allows enough current to bypass the switch when off, although at high resistance thus at low voltage and a dim LED; when the switch is on the LED works at normal brightness. Whatever the cause the unit is shot, obviously, but I doubt there is a safety issue. And yes, there is a minor battery drain although quite minimal.

I had same problem talked to my dealer and they sent out a new one for me to install - easy

And yes the switch is shot

Hello, how is the light attached to camper skin? I couldn't really tell.

Another one here with the same issue. The first time I drove mine in the rain my light filled up with water, obviously poor design. I took it to the dealer for a small list of other items to fix under warranty and they replaced the light too. I believe it is screwed in place with sealant behind it.
