marker lights not working

Last night I couldn't get the marker lights to work. We pulled off the interstate & tried to find the problem. We were half way between Benson, AZ & Tucson, AZ, still trying to make Las Vegas before daylight. I flipped the switch on & off several times to no avail. Checked connection to toad in case there was an issue with plug. Nothing worked. In an effort to save some time I called the Newell emergency number. Tommy Key called back in minutes & helped me locate the circuit breakers in question. After switching circuit breakers I hit the switch & lights worked. It was at this moment I realized that my brain had been reading the "MIRROR HT" switch as "MARKER LT". I will definitely have the look of shame when we get back to Newell for some up grades later this year. I guess my point to all this is that one of the most valuable things about our Newells is the huge amount of support that is built into & stays with every coach.

Clint thanks so much for sharing how great Newells 27/7 support really is. I believe all of us ground pilots have a brain fart from to time and not a big deal.

There are so many do-dads on these Newell's and with happenings in our daily lives, its sometimes par for the course.

Happy Travels Sir!

You are correct that is what makes Newells most valuable the support from Newell Coach and from all the wonderful folks here!
