Today I decided to remove the lighted handle and replace the all the mounting screws with stainless steel screws. Three of the eight screws were broken. There was rust were the break was on all three so I assume of this that someone had there air power screwdriver set too high and actually cracked them upon installation.
Was able to get hold of two of them with a small pair of vice grips and screw them out, the third I had to drill out.
While I had the handle off I looked at the light assembly to see what/how it was made. There was two wire connectors at the top base that I could pull apart. The top metal part pulls off the "light tube" part of the handle.
Then I straightened out the wire as much as I could and was able to push the light assembly down out of the top base.
I am not quite sure what kind of bulb/light I was looking at. It has a very small circuit board on it. It appears to be an LED of some type. Whatever it is, I believe it must be replaced as an assembly. I am going to get hold of Gulf Stream Service on Tueday just to get their input as to what this light is and how would one go about replacing it if needed and where to get the replacement.
I them put it all back together and reinstalled it on the coach. Sure looks a lot better without the rusty screws.
Oh by the way, The 12 SS Screws #8 x 1-1/4" cost all of a dollar at Ziegler Nut & Bolt, a local industrial supply company for fasteners. I really only needed 8 but I thought I would get spares if I ever needed them for something else.
