I have a 2022 Atlas 3342BHF. In the pass through storage bay, there are 2 switches. One controls the LED light strip in the storage bay. The other... I can't figure out what the heck it controls. I see no lights anywhere that change when the switch is flipped. Picture attached of the 2 switches. Anyone know what it does (or know how to find out?).

Not familiar with your unit but maybe for lights on the front cap of your RV?

Most likely the second switch controls outside lights.

The second switch in mine controls 4 LED lights. One on the underside of each corner of the trailer. You would not see them in sun light, but they stand out at night.
 
In my Voltage the second switch turns on LED strips on the cap I think. And you can't tell when you flip the switch because the cap is not in view when your head is in the compartment.

Flip the switch at night and walk around the trailer. I bet you find it.
 
Thanks. There's a switch on the front exterior that turns on the LED strip on the front cap.

I've kept all the lights off and tried to flip the mystery switch at night, but no luck seeing anything changing on the outside, inside, or underneath. At least that I've been able to spot.
 
Good call, it's not plugged in to anything

The second switch is for the lights inside of your outside speakers. They should glow blue when that switch is in the on position.

It does go to something. I single pole switch only has two wires on it. It is the switch to turn on the lights inside of your outside speakers. They will glow blue when the switch is turned on.

There are literally no wires connected to the spade connectors on the back of the switch (see picture above) and no wires unplugged from it. So, perhaps you are correct that it should be used for that, but my guess is they never actually wired mine to do so if that's what it's supposed to be used for.
