darbyjudy, The lighted grab handle on my coach works tonight (tomorrow?). I am a new owner and I like the looks of the handle. I hope it keeps working for a long time. I would like to have the "porch light" and the grab handle work independently of each other or have a much smaller wattage bulb installed into the light above the door. The entry light (porch light) seems too bright and will attract bugs, however I have not been out overnight with it yet.

03heritagerider, 20 bucks IS bad for replacing a bulb of that wattage, especally if you are doing it over and over. The grab handle barely glows and you cannot tell if the light is even working in the daylight. You can buy a couple of headlight bulbs for that much money.

darbyjudy, I think the culprit to your problem may be the moisture you were talking about. Use some silicone grease around the rubber O-rings (if any, as I have not had the unit disassembled) and the sealant at the outside. This may help.
