On my 2014 27RKS (pre In Command) with a 5 function remote, there is a "awkward way to turn it on/off" with the remote. There is also a switch on the curb side under the overhang. The landing gear switch is on the road side, the light switch is on the curb side.
As stated, if the light was turned on with the remote, the switch is "inoperative" until the remote is used to turn the light off.... Alternatively, you can disconnect the trailer battery, let it sit "with no power" (shore power or battery power) overnight, then reconnect everything and "hope" that the remote "brain" reset to deactivate the remote switch condition...
The "one switch activation" which removes the manual switch while the remote is in operation is a safety feature built into the remote control device. The reason is not to protect the light, but rather was programmed into the system to prevent someone from using the remote to open the slide and someone accidentally pressing the "CLOSE" button on the control panel. That could damage the slide motor. Same with the awning. With the older remotes, there wasn't enough "electronics capacity" to program one function with the safety and other functions without it, so everything using the remote will deactivate the manual switches for that function until the operation is complete and the system is reset to normal condition.
