Porch light switch

[Leroy Eckert]

Mine works the the same way. It took me awhile to figure out its activity.
The other switch turned out to be a switch marked accessory over the entry door
on the same panel with the cockpit light, curbside porch light, indirect
florescents etc. Your coach is newer so it may be in a different position.
The same switch operates the overhead rope lights on my coach. So that porch
light is on until I turn off the rope lights.

Ok, I give up on this one.

My 'bird has a "porch light" mounted on the street side-rear that is
operated by a switch in the power hook-up mini-bay. (Where the power
cord is stored and where a cable-tv and telephone hook-up are also
present.)

Apparently, there is another switch somewhere that also affects this
light. The panel where the switch is mounted is clearly marked "on/
off" ... but the switch turns on/off the light in either position,
depending on if the light is currently on or off.

I have carefully observed the light and made sure it was off. Then
sometime later (typically the next day) I'll see that it's on again.
I know that the switch in the bay hasn't been used because it's
behind a locked door and I'm the only one with the key. (My spouse
has a set of keys, but wouldn't know what key opens that door and I
doubt that she'd ever go to the trouble anyway.)

So, where is the other switch? It must be connected to something
else, as the light seems to go on "randomly" and I can't correlate
it's on-off activity to any other activity in the coach.

This isn't really very important -- but it's just one of those 'bird
mysteries that defies logic.
