entry way switches.

I have a 2016 Hurricane 27K. entering the coach on righthand side I have 6 rocker switches, 3 are labeled as USE\storage, Awning and steps. No problem. The other three are NOT labeled but the first operates the main lights, second switch operates the pourch light. The third switch is the mistery. It does have a Fused power wire and a purple / white wire, however I can not find out what it is wired to. Before I start opening wire harnesess and crawling around under the coach thought I would ask if someone might know what this switch controls. thanks

Patio awning lights on the roller. If the switched is turned on with the awning rolled up, the light tape will burn-out in about 20 minutes. New lights with proper plug and glue are available from Cof C. I changed that rocker for one that is lighted when on after replacing the light tape.

C of C refers to what, may I ask?

Thank you,

I also have a 27K, and those switches are intuitive. The awning lights are furthest from the coach when the awning is extended. Thus the swith on the right or curbside. The switch on the left is for the inside lights, three way with the switch under the control center in the hall area. That leaves the middle switch for the light over the door outside.

All switches should be in the down position to be off. I intended to label them at first, but with this logic found it unnecessary for us. If labels help you, do that.

Your Freedom Traveler is a totally different floor plan. Have you considered a solar power porch light? E trailer.com has one with dusk to dawn or motion sensor functions.
