Flood Light Staying On

For some mysterious reason, our exterior flood light, LED light over hitch, and amber light under the stairs have all come on and stayed on. The interior flood light switch on the panel is in the off position but is lit. We didn't turn them on.
We have pulled all fuses but to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions? Are we missing something obvious here?

They could have been inadvertently turned on with the remote. The only way to turn them off then is with the remote.

Try shutting it off with your remote.

You don't mention what year your Montana is but if you have the remote control and have accidently turned the scare light on with it then the light can only be turned off with it. Tim

It's a common problem. Comes up every month or so.

You guys are brilliant!! We have never used the remote but we were moving stuff around and it probably got bumped accidentally. Just went out there and your suggestion worked perfectly! I even got kudos from my husband for checking on the forum for the answer.

I just came on the forum after a few months away, and found this post to be interesting. We have a 2014 3155RL and have had similar intermittent issues with lights and ceiling fan. A Montana owner just happened to pull in next to us and in conversation, I learned they had a remote. Is it possible that I should also have a remote, and the dealer "forgot" to tell me about it? There is nothing in my 20 lb packet of product information that gives me a hint that tells me I should have one. Thanks for any suggestions you can provide.

We got a remote feature with the 2010 (never used it). Our 2015 did not come with any remote feature.

I don't think I have a remote for mine either, 2016. My problem is the yellow light under the stair quit working along with the LED over the hitch pin.
More things for the dealer to look at.

Clearance light under stairs tied into scare light circuit. Now that is a jewel of design. John
