Awning lights

We have a 2014 XLR 395 AMP and just came out for a good cool weather trip on the lake. First night here and went to turn the front awning light do not work but the rear awning lights do. Haven't taken anything apart to look but didn't know if there was a fuse to these separately or if they were tied together? The switch lights up when they are turned on. Guess I will wait till we get home so I can see if there's power at the lights.

They are both hot coming into each switch then have individual fuses on the way out. You have to pull the main switch panel to access the inline fuse. Your front fuse may be blown. It's a 5A IIRC.

Pulled the panel and check that there was power going in the switch and power going out of the switch. Then followed the wire until it went up into the wall, no fuse in the cabinet. And I don't have a ladder with me to check for power at the lights so will just have to wait to fix it, doesn't seem like something simple to do here.

Interesting. Model variation as it were. Mine had inline fuses after each switch. I saw them when I was installing my dimmers on each one.

We own same year and model and both strings failed almost immediately. My understanding is that most if not all have failed. Long delay while Forest River found a new supplier ( so dealer told us). We are supposed to get replacements week after next.

Haven't had a chance since we have been home to look at them, the rain here just doesn't seem to want to end.
