Docking Light's V3200

Is there a interior switch that has to be turned on before the docking light switch mounted on the exterior works ? When I turn on the switch I get nothing, it's hard to belief that both lights are burnt out ?

I just turn on the switch in the garage and they both work...no interior switch.

I think he's referring to the front lights. If so they are easy to pull out & check if you are getting power to them.

DesertRat .. that's the ones I'm referring to .. you say they just "pull out" .. is the only thing holding them in the rubber around them ? Can I take a screw driver and slowly edge them forward ?

Tks

Have you checked for voltage at the external switch yet? It is external so it may not even be working.

Easier to look at that switch before attempting to open the LED fixtures.

Yes rubber is the only thing holding them in. If you aren't getting power than need to check at the switch.

I would check the switch. Usually when I have a problem like that, it is a bad ground.
