American Coach: side exterior lights

We’ve got a new to us 2015 American Tradition that we’ve recently taken delivery of. The only thing we haven’t been able to figure out is how to turn on the exterior lights on each sidewall up near the top and relatively centered. One is up high on the full wall slide and the other on the opposite side is high between the two slides. I can’t find a switch for them...or perhaps have a circuitry problem. They don’t come on with the dash switches for docking lights, dome lights or hood lights. I’m not sure where else to check. Any pointers would be great!

Thanks,
Eric

How about your door lights? That is what turns mine on.

Just inside the door are 3 toggle switches.
Door handle light
Porch light
Interior ceiling lights.

If you have similar and the lights don't come on, check fuses first (doubtful) and then check that wires to the switch are in place.

Thank you. I will investigate. They do not come on with the porch lights so I will check the circuitry.

800-435-7345 will get you your answer.

I just read that your lights are not the porch lights (orange lens, passenger side only) but maybe are illumination lights. My coach doesn't have them.

On my coach, they are called "scare" lights. Each has it's own rocker switch near the top mid/right side of the panel over the passenger's chair.
