CONTROL PANEL

HAS ANYONE HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS.
MY CELING LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON BUT THE ROCKER SWITCH ON MY CONTROL PANEL STAYS LIT IN THE ON POSITION AND THE OFF POSITION.

Thanks
Dennis.

Look at the 12vdc fuses to see if a led is lit indicating a blown fuse Should be first check. John

Do you have a remote. There is an outside light that goes on with the remote and results in a rocker switch being lit in the off position. It can only be turned off with the remote.

Thanks and be safe.

It would sure help if you added a description of your rig to your Profile. But I found out you have a 2012 38' Montana Hickory 3665RE.

The 2012 (and later) models have a door switch (in the frame and opened/closed by the screen door). Opening the door is designed to turn on the ceiling lights. When the screen door is open, the ceiling light switch is illuminated. The ceiling light fixtures have on/off switches themselves. If the switch on a ceiling light is On, it illuminates. If it is Off, it doesn't.

By chance, are ALL the ceiling lights switched off? Do the ceiling lights go On when you operate the wall switch? Does the illuminated switch go out when the door is closed? All signs point to the door switch being the culprit.

Very early 2011 Montana here with the entry door light switch but no illuminated ceiling light switches. The door switch only activates about 3 ceiling lights near the entry door. I too wonder if the switches on the ceiling lights themselves got turned off somehow. The rocker switch light staying on no matter if on or off is puzzling.

Thanks. I guess when I had it in for repairs the tech. had turned them off.
Once I switched them on all was fine.
