Entry door grab handle

[scottybee]

While looking at new RV's last week at the Houston RV show I noticed most of the class A handles were lighted. The handle on my Adventurer looks like it should light up, but it never has since I bought it used even though it's only a 2016. There are little white rods running through the clear part of the handle. I took it off the coach there are no electrical connections at all.
so is it supposed to light? If so, how do I turn it on?

Most likely it is not lighted. Not as familiar with the 2016 models, but in prior years Winnie only had lighted handles on the top-end diesels. Did look at your sales brochure, doesn't mention it as a feature or option.

Not to say you can't do it yourself. There are several threads where people have installed a small LED and ran the wire up to the porch light. Biggest challenge is running the wire in the wall.

Aspects are the same way. I contacted Winnebago and they verified that the handle is not lighted. Maybe they use the same handle on several models but only a few are lighted?

My 2015 Journey was the same way , but I easily ran a LED light to the lower part of the handle and it lights up just like the OEM . I also added a led light strip to the bottom of the steps to light the way and ran the power off the interior step lights already in place . You can also power it off the porch light switch .

Our journey came the same way! We got the light on eBay that fits in the top and gets wired into the porch light switch. It's worth it!

Could you share the info on the light that you got on ebay?
Thanks
