Dumb, but...
How do you get the bulbs out of the entry way 3-way light fixture? We have a 2006 3400RL.

These are 12v DC lights and are very similar to automotive tail light bulbs. Push up (into the socket) and turn (don't remember now which way, I think it is counter clockwise to remove).

Michael,
Just pull them out no turning just a flat plug bulb. You can get them in different wattages at your dealer. If I remember right Wal-mart has them in their little RV section. Had a couple of ours go out right away. Might want to try and re-bend the wire at the base of the bulb, mine had this problem, 2 going out the first month we had it. Found one bad and the other had the wires not making contact.

Tom Gina 06 is correct as I have already replaced a bulb in my 3485 and yes Wal*Mart does ell them in the RV section, at least that's where I found mine. Buy a couple extra for future use.

Buy a whole bunch for future use!!! These bulbs don'tlast all that long, especially the automotive types. The flat base two wire last longer that the Round base two contact types. I am going to replace with heavy duty type 12 volt bulbs as soon as I can find the type I want.

??? Are they burning out from wear & tear (i.e. road bounce weakening them and filiment breaking)-- if so you might want to replace with LED bulbs. Can't find the URL right now but someone else had it in the tow vehicle section not long ago -- not cheap but they last and last and last!!! Just a thought.
