Default Rocker switches stairwell

What does the overhead light switch in the entrance stairwell operate? The unit is actually a 2008 model 8390.

Default It Controls the "Overhead Light"!

Really;


On my 2005 Sun Voyager it controls the second overhead light from the front. Mine are (were) florescent fixtures but now LED. This lets you light up the coach when returning in the dark.

Sorry it was obvious but I tied to operate that way and appears switch disconnected. Only works manually. Thanks for the info.

Default Look on the fixture

It's not like a home system. Turn the light on at the fixture. Then try to turn it on and off at the step switch. The light must be left on.

It is also important to note that in order for the step switch to work, the fixture switch must be ON, but once inside, turning off at the stair with the door closed is awkward, thus the switch on the fixture. Just has to be ON at ceiling when you depart to turn OFF at step
