Title: Bathroom light not working
Post by: cmccallum on October 02, 2021, 09:21:37 PM
Our LED light in the bathroom stopped working a while back. I think I've isolated that the problem is between the switch and fuse (fuse continuity measures fine). So I'm prepared to open the wall where the switch is mounted to search further for bad connections.  However, before I do that, I wanted to see if others have had this issue and have any advice that might save me having to open the wall. I was also looking for wiring diagrams in the forum, which I thought I'd heard mentioned several years ago. But no luck on my archive searches.

Welcome! It's certainly possible it's a bad connection. The clamp-on connections LL used are prone to corrosion. I had one go bad in the wire chase over the shower that shut off the outside lights. Have you removed the light fixture to look for bad connections or a loose LED connection there? Lots of folks have had electrical shorts from aluminum shavings in light fixtures. I suppose the switch could be susceptible to aluminum shaving shorts too?  I'm not aware of wiring diagrams for any Camplite models. When you find the problem, post back in case it happens to someone else.
