I have a 2013 Alpine 3700RE that has 2 round clear lights outside as well as the amber light above the door.The clear light on the entrance side along wth the amber light work but the clear light on the other side of the trailer(side that dump station is on)does not come on.At first I thought it was run from the same switch as the other light and the bulb was bad, but there is no voltage to the socket and the bulb is good.Is there another switch that I have not yet found for this light?

My Outback has the exact same lights you described. Mine has two switches located at the main switch panel. The door side light switch is labeled DS light. The street side light switch is labeled ODS light. I'm not sure what ODS means but I call it Other Door Side.... Lol

They did not label any switches in mine other than the Awning switch. I figured out thru trial and error.

My 2 docking/scare lights (the round, clear ones, one on each side) are on a single switch and my door light is on another. It sounds like you have a disconnect wire someplace.

DOCDATA 757, I think you might be right.It's such a small issue to drag the trailer back to dealer for so I will probably wait to see if any more warrenty issues come up.

DS is Door Side
ODS is Off Door Side

Have you looked for switch in water-works compartment ????? I know it's not important but it would drive me crazy. :dizzy: (I know it is just a short walk for me so I don't need anyone to drive me)

No switch in water works,I am starting to think that it runs off the same switch as the door side lite but has a break in the wire some where
