Question Turn outside light on with keypad entry?

I don't remember all the combinations on the keypad on my 2017 VTDP. I think there was a way to turn the entrance door (outside) light on/off from the keypad. Does anyone know if this is possible and if so which button does it?

What "keypad"? The outside light turns on in the control panel above in front of the passenger seat

Thanks. I still have to figure out which button does what. 1 seems to be lock only. 2 I think is door unlock only. 3 unused? 4 is unlock door and cargo. I thought the manual mentioned one for a dome light but it may be the handle that has more buttons which our coach doesn't have.

Check to see if you have a "Step Well Lighting" switch on the passenger side switch panel near the entrance door. If you do, switch it on an your interior step well along with the exterior handle will illuminate (at least that's the way it works on our Essex).

Yes, the patio light switch is there, does that. Just didn't know if you could turn it on/off from the keypad pole. Doesn't sound like it.

Neal - my DS 4018 has the electric remote locking cargo bay doors, so my keypad allows me to lock and unlock the front door and cargo bay doors.

[When unlocked]
HOLD BUTTON 1 FOR 5 SEC = FRONT DOOR AND CARGO BAY DOORS LOCK.

[When locked]
COMBO + 1 UNLOCKS FRONT DOOR

COMBO + 2 UNLOCKS CARGO BAY DOORS

Yours is likely programmed differently, and a quick call to Newmar would sort out your particular set-up.

Mine is:

Press and hold 1 to lock

Combo + 1 unlocks the entry door
Combo + 2 unlocks the basement
Combo + 4 unlocks door and basement

C + 3 does nothing

How do I find what the master code is and how do I change it? I want to continue to move things away from factory defaults for security.

The master codes are in the manual for the handle keypad. I believe there are two, an 'access code' and a 'a security code' that both have to accessed to allow you to make any changes. Its in the manual.

Good luck.
