Title: Just noticed - ceiling puck lights?
Post by: Carol & Scott on April 09, 2013, 10:54:35 pm
There are three switches on the side of the cabinet going up the stairs on the left.  Two of them work the recessed ceiling accent lights/string lights the third switch activates the the ceiling puck lights on passenger side only.  Is there another switch somewhere or is something else going on?  Inquiring minds want to know.

It is interesting that the kitchen ceiling puck lights activate by two switches.

Drivers side puck lights come on when slide goes out.

Hi Barry-

Driver's side slide is out and no lights.  Fuse?  Are the lights wired in a series, when one  bulb is out they all go out?

Should not be wired in series. One light out should not effect the others.
Probably the lights mechanical switch above the slide . Steve did a write up on his issues and shows a photo of it  Slide Room Sensors (http://beamalarm.com/Documents/slide_room_sensors.html)

Thanks for the link to the "how to".  However, my valance is very solid.  There are 5 Upholstered buttons on the bottom side of the valance.  Could these cover the attachment screws?  Pics attached.  Thoughts?

Yes, They just pop off to expose the screw underneath.
