Lighting
Interior Lights
A Newmar coach’s electrical and lighting system is
designed for maximum reliability, functionality, and style.
Your coach may feature traditional on/o
ff
switches or
multi-switch touch panel light and accessory switch
panels. Located throughout the unit, these switching
devices are used to turn lights on and o
ff
, as well as to
operate power shades and window treatments. Many
coach models boast LED accent lights and LED wall
sconces custom-designed for Newmar.
Flip the switch or touch the switch panel to operate the
light or accessory you desire. Some lights may also have
dimming features, allowing you to adjust the interior
lighting for mood or comfort. For more details about the
interior lights, refer to the documentation in Newgle.
Many of these bulbs are made as both filament and LED.
Most LED bulbs are polarity-sensitive unlike filament
bulbs. When attempting to replace filament-type bulbs
with LED-type bulbs, it is possible for the light fixture to be
wired in reverse polarity for the LED replacement bulbs.
Switching to a di
ff
erent type of bulb may require a wiring
change. Newmar recommends any wiring modifications
be performed by an authorized service technician.
When replacing halogen bulbs, do not touch the bulb,
as the oil from your hands will reduce the bulb’s life.
IMPORTANT
!
Turn o
ff
the lights to avoid possible short circuits, blown
fuses, and burns while removing and replacing bulbs or
lights. Depending on the year and model of your coach,
it may be equipped with LED light fixtures with the lights
embedded into the light housing.
Many of the LED light fixtures have integrated LED
assemblies that are non-serviceable and non-replaceable.
When LED light bulbs burn out in this type of fixture, the
complete light must be replaced. Replacement bulbs
or light fixtures are available for purchase through the
Newmar Parts Department.
WARNING
!
Do not substitute bulbs just because they will fit, as it
may cause overheating, back feed, or damage to the
light fixture or lens.
Exterior Lights
Replace any exterior light bulbs or fixtures as needed
to maintain DOT safety requirements. When servicing
interior or exterior lights, make sure you replace any light
bulb with the same bulb number (normally stamped on
the base of the bulb or printed on the bulb). Replacing
the bulb with the identical part number will ensure the
wattage and base are the same.
The coach may have headlights installed that are
atmospherically vented, so condensation may
occur in these headlight assemblies. Under normal
driving conditions with the headlights turned on, the
condensation will dissipate, allowing it to escape through
the vent.
Always check the operation of all headlights, turn
signals, and clearance lights prior to traveling.
IMPORTANT
!
It is necessary to keep exterior lights clean, as dirty
lights have diminished output and reduced visibility. To
clean your exterior lights, use a mild soap designed for
automotive car washing. Avoid using harsh cleaners,
abrasive products, and petroleum-based products or
other chemicals.
Faults and Warnings
A fault a
ff
ects the operation of the unit. A manual fault
requires user intervention by clearing the condition and
then pressing the CLEAR FAULT RESET button on the
inverter/charger’s front panel. A warning alerts you to a
condition that could possibly a
ff
ect operation of the unit.
