Caddymv Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I keep my LE 2 plugged in to a 30 amp all winter. Went out this afternoon just to say hi and check on things and the cabinet lights don’t work. I replaced the 5 amp fuse and still nothing. Any ideas. Thank you 2022 Elite 2 twin. Hull1273 2021 Tundra Crew Crab V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator+ ScubaRx Posted February 25 Moderator+ Share Posted February 25 Could be a faulty switch. Pull up the mat in the cabinet above the light. Apply 12 volts directly to the wires on the light to eliminate a bad light. 1 3 Steve, Tali and the dogs: Reacher and Rocky plus our beloved Storm, Maggie and Lucy (all waiting at the Rainbow Bridge) 2008 Legacy Elite I - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #026 | 2014 Legacy Elite II - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #050 | 2022 Silverado High Country 3500HD SRW Diesel 4x4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caddymv Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 Everything else works. I went back out and flipped 5he switch a couple Tim’s and the lights came on. Now I wonder if I have a loose connection in the switch. But right now the lights work. Thank you 3 2022 Elite 2 twin.

I have heard of dust fouling the contacts on those switches as well. If it were my Elite II, I would pull the switch cover off to evaluate how clean those contacts are. If you do this, please report what you find, so others (like me) who have that same switch panel can learn from your experience. 2 Hull #1291 Central Idaho 2022 Elite II Tow Vehicle: 2019 Tundra Double Cab 4x4, 5.7L with tow package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Switches get wonky sometimes and flipping them on and off a few times sometimes does the trick. They’re easy to replace. If the wires at the switch are firmly attached, I’d just replace it. 3 Steve, Tali and the dogs: Reacher and Rocky plus our beloved Storm, Maggie and Lucy (all waiting at the Rainbow Bridge) 2008 Legacy Elite I - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #026 | 2014 Legacy Elite II - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #050 | 2022 Silverado High Country 3500HD SRW Diesel 4x4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katanapilot Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Switches absolutely do go bad. If you replace the switch and still have issues, double check the ground(s). For a DC circuit, 9 times out of 10 issues are with the ground. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Mike and Carol Posted February 25 Moderators Share Posted February 25 I’ve got a couple of switches that either don’t come on sometimes or flicker. I turn the on/off a few times and they work. One of these days I’ll just replace them.

Caddymv Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 Mike and Carol. That’s what happened. They flickered first. Now seem to be working fine 1 2022 Elite 2 twin. Hull1273 2021 Tundra Crew Crab V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph and Dud B Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 We've had several issues with fiberglass dust fouling switches in our 2022. Shop vac, canned air, and working the switches seems to have resolved them. OTT could do a better job vacuuming production dust from between the hulls. 1 Stephanie and Dudley from CT. 2022 LE2, Hull #1150: Eggcelsior. Tow vehicle: 2016 GMC Sierra 6.0 gas dually 4x4.
