Given the problems ORV seems to have with tightening connections, I'd check that the wire to the fuse is secure. If it isn't, you could have a high-resistance connection generating heat.
There are 5 LED lights on a 15 amp fuse, so I doubt it's too much draw. I'll be at the dealer on Monday and they can check wires.

Just dropped it off. Hopefully the exorcist can rid it of the demon. Will let you fine, helpful folks know what they found.

They found a short in the coiled wiring under the slide out. Fixed!

I'll be damned, I just had the same issue on my 2007 Thor Outlaw. Never would have dreamed that a fuse would be 'open' enough to cause high resistance. I only had 10VDC to my slide lights. Thanks for posting the solution.
