I smashed mine. Does anyone know of a part number for the replacement? I'd prefer to just buy the part rather than going through ETI.
 
Are you referring to the E, 1/3, 2/3, F red lights on the small black panel that also has hot water and water pump switches?
 
Thanks for the replies. I'm looking for the exterior light above the sewer hookup, hoping to find the exact replacement so I don't have to drill more holes. I'll investigate that Amazon find.
 
Reach out to Kaper II in Washington; 2212 Parrott Way, Kelso, WA 98626. Tel: 1-800-336-2011.

They supply the lights to ETI and were very helpful to me and a few other members who were looking to replace some of our LED lights with red-LEDs to preserve night vision for amateur astronomy.

Light designs change over time, a pic of what you have (is it the same as the porch light?) helps immensely.

My other brand used Bargman rectangular lights, later, they switched to Optronics (oval shaped). I changed all of mine to eliminate the yellowed white fixtures.

Not complaining, just trying to educate a bit. Amazon links are unwieldy and can be shortened. They actually contain info about you, the seller, the weather, and about everything else, buried in them.

Just highlight and delete the /ref and everything after the /ref and the link will work just fine.

fyi, that light was an option. and if its like the yellowed one in Charles pic, the switches don't work after a couple years, unless you use them all the time.

me, if I need to dump in the dark, I use a Petzl headlight.

I tend to copy the link directly and then just put a word like LINK or HERE and use the forum tools to insert the link so it goes directly to the page. I like your info and, from now on, will only include that much of the URL even when embedding it as I said above. Thanks for great info!
 
My other brand of trailer has four of those lights. The comparison Pic is of the one over the forward cargo pod. There is one at the dump station, one for a porch light, and one inside the cargo pod (which is still bright white, being inside). I installed black ones at all exterior locations, and put one WITHOUT a switch at the porch light location. It has an inside switch, and I wanted to eliminate the ability for someone to turn it off. The inside switch is a red illuminated one so I am reminded it is on.

I replaced my yellowed vinyl belt molding with black for the same reason as the lights, to prevent further yellowing and provide a nice contrasting appearance.

One other hint is to buy the regular version of the light with a bulb socket, and install your own LED lamp. The ones with the permanent LEDs are poor quality, and you will be replacing them over and over.

Not much to show, but I set about replacing anything white that was, or could yellow, with black. Exterior lights, molding, tag light, even installed a black Houghton 9500 last year when the Dometic died.

Contrast is much more visually pleasing as a general rule than mis matched whites.

I generally do the same, or on Amazon links, will copy the items title and use it rather than a simple HERE.
 
when I replaced the plastic outer piece for the stove hood fan vent, I sprayed it with about 6 thin coats of offwhite Krylon, 2 years later no sign of yellowing. The original was deep yellow and crumbling

When we were thinking of getting an Escape trailer we used the link online to connect with an owner. (Oddly enough he is not on the owner's map...) He had purchased and applied some self-stick "gutter" stripping over his windows, door, etc. It looked good and seemed like a good idea. We're trying to find what it was and wondering if anybody else has done this. His was white but black might look really nice. He had bought a length of it and cut it to shorter pieces that looked really nice on his E19. Other's here must have done this as I "think" he may well have gotten the idea from forums such as this.
 
RVGutter.com is apparently no longer in business, the web address goes to a unsecure site that my anti-virus blocks.as being blacklisted.

However Trim-Loc appears to be a manufacturer of a flexible PVC self stick gutter material.
