It is one of those days over this way. Company Christmas party was last night (free beer and steak) but was apparently was not enough for two of the techs (not mine fortunately), they had to go to out to the local gentlemen's clubs. One showed up around noon, the other is still M.I.A.........

Do you have access to voltage toy hauler wiring diagrams? The driver side security light would turn itself on, light the switch up but would not respond to it. Took the switch panel down it had two switched wires. Cut the wire that did not power said light and all is working. Have no clue what other wire was for, but I should probably figure out what back fed power....
