Turn Signal Replacement Vegas 25.1

Getting ready for the annual NC "Safety" Inspection and found the pax-side turn signal not working. Looked under the "hood" and from under the wheel well and it is a bear just to get to it. Have gone through all the manuals, etc., and can not find anything about it. Note: Not talking about the side mark.

Anyone ever change the turn signal on their 25.1 Vegas (2015)?

If so how did you do it and what type of the replacement bulb?

TIA

2015. Side turn signals? Our 2016 did not blink at all and I came to the conclusion that they were only side marker lights. I am pretty sure I wasn't wrong. You may want to search this issue and find the thread I started on the subject. I ended up buying LED side marker/turn signal lights, amber in front and red in the rear. The only thing is that I wired the rear/reds the simple way so when you apply the brakes they would activate too. Made a huge difference anyway.

No, passenger side turn signal, not the marker lights on the side of the RV.

My light fixture has 3 lights on top of each. They are (top to bottom) Turn Signal, Low Beam, High Beam. Side marker is a separate thing

Any way, I found my mirror on a stick and got back under the hood. Stuck it up and around the corner. Found where the lighting cable entered the turn signal housing and thus I also found the turn signal bulb housing. Gave it a 1/4 turn and it popped out.

Gave the bulb a wiggle or two and pushed it firmly in the housiing. Then turned on the power and the darn thing was a bright amber.

Enduring more scraps on the hand and knuckles I repeated the process and buttoned eveything.

After I get the Vegas through its Safety Inspection tomorow I WILL stop at NAPA to get me a spare bulb. WAGNER 12v 3157NA

Sorry about missing that important sentence in your first post.
