Question 8289WS Light Question/Help

Can anyone tell me what switch turns the "hall" ceiling light on that is just outside the bedroom and bath. I have tried every switch and the light will not turn nor do I get 12v to the light. My dealer is over 2 hours away and don't want to make the drive.

Not the I captured the picture below from online and is not mine as the light is on LOL

Is there a switch on it?

Many of the lights in my camper have a nipple in the middle that you push (which then glows in the dark for a while).

No, switch. Had the cover off and no power to the light with every switch I could find in the on position.

That light in that same location on my 2014 8289WS has a rocker switch on the light itself, no other switching for that light.

iRV control panel there are light buttons on there (Entry light) or another switch
on there? May need to have power on on the control panel for it to work.
I pick up my new Rockwood tomorrow so I will also have to figure this out.

Working now, not sure what it was but all my poking around the light, wires and fuse panel must have done something. Lets hope it stays working. Thanks everyone for you input.

Top left second switch in as well as the Entry light on the iRV app. Had I turned one light at a time on then off instead of turning all the lights on at once trying to find it I could have identified which switch. LOL

Oh, yes I can turn it off too ;-)
