Need ideas......docking lights on passenger side and rear turn on when you flip the switch. Drivers side....nothing. Security lights come on on that side, but not docking lights. Any idea what to check and where?

Check the drivers side fuse compartment and see if there are fuses for the docking lights.

There are also fuses on the passenger side rear door, where you fill the def, they're under the large round cap. The cap is pretty tight, but about an eight turn ccw and it'll come off. Don't remember which fuses are in there, but worth checking if you don't find them in the first door on the drivers side. Noel

Found the fuse for DS docking lights on the drivers side. Pulled the fuse it was fine. Any further ideas? We are thinking the bulb maybe burned out.

The docking light removes with couple of screws. IIRC they are a 2 prong plug. Remove one of the docking lights then check the plug with a volt meter or a 12v test light. If the lights are bad, they are covered under warranty. I had to replace 2 of mine.

Do we pry the ring around the light off? Didn't want to ruin anything. We went to check them, but there are no screws on the outside. The metal ring around the light also turns in a complete circle around the light which doesn't seem right.....

I have 2 lights sitting on the shelf at my storage hanger. I will look this week to see what I did to change mine.

Weekend Entegra Customer Service line person should be able to give you lots of information on how to remove those and check.

Bulb number 893 walmart 5 bucks there is a big nut underneath holding the fixture in channel locks, they twist in to the fixture. Don't touch the glass part prolly wear a rubber glove

You have to unscrew the large plastic nut from behind the light, in the fender well, then unplug the entire fixture, or remove the plug first and check for power as Chuck says.The light fixture can then be taken out of the hole. You have to carefully bend the ears on the ring on the outside to remove the ring, then you can get at the bulb by removing the three screws on the backside of the light. I have done all this in order to clean mine, but didn't check bulb sizes. Make sure you don't lose the sealing gasket that is between the glass and the rest of the fixture. I also put some silicone between the joints to prevent future leakage.

Bob, thanks for saving me a trip to the MH

You're right about the silicone, one of my leaks was from the gasket wrinkled during assembly in China. Straighten it out, silicone sealed it, no more leaks.
