Light not lit on outside power-outlet cover

The light on on this cover is not lit. There is power inside the trailer. Is there something I should check to make sure I'm getting the proper amperage? I checked the fuse box and nothing was tripped. I didn't check all the small fuses though. I've attached a pic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Those lights go out all the time. Sometimes they will come back on and sometimes not. Just ignore it not telling you anything is wrong with your power.

There are lots of reports here of the light failing. Some had the port replaced under warranty only to have it fail again in a few months.

Someone took their's apart to try and fix it but didn't have much luck.

Mine failed at about 10 months.
Never worried about it.

Yeah mine went out as well after the first couple trips. Had it replaced under warranty. They put a new type on with a half moon light and has been good for about a year so far.

Mine does the same, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. As long as you've got power inside the camper it's nothing to worry about. The lights at the plug stopped working on mine too.

Mine went out after 1 year. Everything was working, so I just ignored it. It's still out for over a year now.

I was really excited to see this and hoped that I would finally get the answer to the same problem that the writer had. Reluctantly I have the same problem and don’t pay any attention to it

These Furrion power led lights go out quite common. On one unit it went out, Furrion sent a replacement and said they go out. Replacement lasted about 3 months before going out. No problem. Just an indicator led. Not replaceable.
Got a new rig now... that Furrion indicator light lasted 6 months, then dark.
I dont even worry about it.

Well it SHOULD work....

Our Rockwood 8311 is 3 months old and the light quit. Just because it happens to everyone, doesn't make it right. I'm planning on getting a replacement under warranty. If enough people complain maybe they'll start supplying a decent one. Just MHO.

Or listen for the microwave to go "beep."
