Light in Engine Compartment - Southwind

[Stef333]

Hi All,

I just bought my first RV, a 2002 Southwind 35R. There is a light on in the engine compartment that can be seen only from outside of the coach, and I can't figure out how to turn it off! I've flipped every switch inside the rig, but nothing works. I don't see anything in the manual about it.

Can anyone tell me how to turn that engine light off...?

Thanks!
Stefanie

Is there, by chance, a "Utility Light" switch on the dash? Our Discovery has lights in the wet bay and engine bay that are controlled by a dash switch, completely separate from the baggage lights in the other basement bays.

I haven't tried it yet, but my 1999 Southwind 35S has a switch on the dash called "HOOD"

My Bounder had a switch labeled " utility ". It worked the light under the hood and the light on the the rear side above the wet bay as well as the light in the wet bay.

Thanks, everybody! The light is finally off.

answers why I can't turn on the light in the wet bay, thanks. 2 birds with one per verbal stone
