Good morning ,
Just puchased 2019 22 crb and when I turn on awning lights they turn off immediatly. Has anyone had this issue?
Thanks,

does the switch not stay on & clicks back off OR is the switch in the on position & lights go OFF?

Robert the switch stays in the on position. I guess i can take switch out and jump the wires to see if switch contacts are bad.
thanks,

Try wiggling the switch, applying light pressure on all sides of it, flick it on and off. I still have to address the poor wiring job from Heartland behind my control panel. Too many wires in too tight of a space (depth wise), causing pressure on the connectors, connections, and switches. Sometimes an item I switch on does the same thing, or it flickers. Pressing on the whole panel, or the switch corrects the problem. For me I will have to inspect each crimp connector for proper crimp, and possibly switch out many of them with 90 degree crimp connectors.

The LED awning strips I have purchased online before have a lights driver box, which may have a overcurrent shutoff function. This may not be worth trying to fix.

Here's one I found on E-Bay:https://www.ebay.com/itm/304306066789?hash=item46da0e1565:g:HNcAAOSwNX9gkgCI&LH_BIN=1

Hi John, did you ever figure this out? We are having the same problem.
