A few months ago (while still in warranty), we had the off-door side front clearance marker light stop illuminating. I figured it was a burned out bulb and thought I would get to it "some time" since I don't have a long enough ladder to get up there to check.
More recently, the middle clearance light stopped working, as well. Today, with the loan of an extension ladder from a fellow Heartlander at a rally, I climbed up and pulled the off-door side marker out of the cap and found that the wire(s) had completely pulled out of the back of the LED module. Since the hole in the cap is so small, you can't really see anything back in there.
I moved over to the middle light and found that there was (no longer) a light in that lens at all. It has fallen down inside the cap, apparently. Moving over to the door side (where the light still works), I pulled that one and found the light module still in place with wiring still attached. However, the wire has what feels like a fairly substantial weight pulling it down (I'd guess between 8 - 16 oz.).
Is there some type of box inside the front cap that possibly takes the 12V lighting circuit down to something that the LED clearance lights can run on that the three clearance lights are connected to? Is it possible this box has come loose and subsequently pulled the wires out of the one light and pulled the center light out of its lens?
Assuming this is all the case, I would assume repairs would involve ripping out the closet wall to get to the wiring behind the cap?
