Map light above driver on Camelot

So there is a light above the passenger and drivers seat in the ceiling on my 09 Camelot. On the passenger side armrest area is a "map Light" switch. This switch turns on the light on the passenger side but not the drivers side.

Does anyone know if this switch is supposed to do both lights? If so then I have a problem I can likely fix (it's not the bulb).

If not, does anyone know how the drivers side light is turned on?

Thanks in advance!

I've tried that, thought it would be like an old car, it didn't work, but the switch also didn't feel right and sort of grinds turning it back and forth. I'll look at it again, thanks for comfirming!

Mine is controlled by the headlight switch as well. Also that light will come on for a minute or so when I unlock the entrance door from the outside keypad.

Ditto what they said, light switch or check bulb. If passenger bulb works swap the driver for passenger and give it a try. At least rule out the bulb.

Map light above driver on Camelot

Ceiling light comes on like stated.
The map light then comes on with a switch on the map light itself.
I have the same KFQ. Took me a year to answer this for myself. Did it accidentally! [emoji6]

Mine is like that TWO switchs one on the light and the Dash Light Dimmer like a Cars Dome light.

Thanks to you all, and yes that was it, twist the headlight switch. It turns hard and I thought it was going to break, I'll see if I can lube it up or something, on to the next thing in a new post!

CRC Contact Cleaner (plastic safe version). I use it a lot of places on the coach.
