Wall panel control switches

Hello,

I have a 2019 Thor Windsport 29M. On the wall I have two control panels that turn on and off lights, pumps, generator, etc. One is in the bathroom and one in the bedroom. They appear to me removable.

These seem useless to me to be able to use at night when it’s dark. I have to use a light to find the switch to turn on the light. Am I missing something? If anyone has these panels, do they glow or light up some how? I have attached photos.

Thank you for any assistance.

Alan

Sorry that I can't help you out with those specific switch panels. It just amazes me that I have a Thor 2019 also, only mine is a Fourwinds, and my switches are completely different, mine being rocker type. You would think that they would just standardize and use the same thing regardless of model.

Mine are the simple rocker switches. But... if I had those, I'd install a small motion sensor light directly above the panel.

I'd pop the panel off and make sure there's 12 volts to pull from. If so, just drill a small hole to pull wires through and mount the light directly above the panel with 3M VHB tape.

Many of us with those type panels have used self stick rubber buttons on the light switch for that room. Not the most elegant, but it is simple and it works.

I did that on my Aria, right by the exit door, and in the bath... when it's dark I now use the Braile button.... LOL... I still hate the set up.. and would rather just have light switches
