My clearance and marker lights won't turn off. I have removed the fuses to the day and night clearance lights and the fuse to the marker lights yet they stay on. Any suggestions.

Newmar Mike..Welcome to the forum! I am sure one of the Newmar folks will show up - but in the meantime... is there a knob for your headlights? You may find it and twist it to the left - it might be where your problem is....

Again - welcome....we hope you visit & post often!

You will get better responses if you list what model and year unit you have.

Welcome Newmar Mike to the Newmar forum and irv2.
He has a 2007 DutchStar.
Usually the lights have a switch either on dash or on steering directional lever.
Are these not working and have you pulled all fuse's?
Maybe a tough one to fine if wire short to ground frame.

Thanks for the reply. I have removed three fuses, day clearance, night clearance & marker. The lights stay on. I am thinking it is the Light switch or I have a short related to the light switch. I have pulled, pushed and turned the switch but it doesn't fix the problem. I have not found a fuse that will turn the lights off. I will call Newmar tomorrow.

THANKS.

You could take the left dash panel out and check the backside of switch.
Some wiring may have fallen over the switch causing your problem.

Thanks,

I didn't see anything. I called Sparten and they think it is in the controler board. I have an appointment. I did find the wiring harness connection to turn of all of the front lights.

Thanks
