Has anyone replaced their awning light strip on their 2529RG? Half of ours are out.
If you replaced them where did you get them? Winnebago or ?
How easy was it to replace the light strip?
How is the light strip attached to your camper?
 
Had the same issue on a 2021 unit and tried to replace with an aftermarket light strip but the wiring did not match up. So, had my local dealer, Campers Inn, order correct light strip and install; $300 repair.
 
Wow Ray, I think I'll look at oter options or just ignore the lights being out.
I wss up on a ladder getting ready to head our in the morning and it looks like the awning lights are part of the awning itself. I may contact Carefree of Colorado and see what they suggest.
 
You could install an aftermarket strip just below the old one using outdoor Command hooks and plug into your outside outlet.

Yeah, I have the same issue. It failed right where the two pieces of the clear plastic holder butted up against each other. For a while, I could take a broom handle and push on it and they all would work until we moved. But, that stopped working after awhile. It's a low priority project for me at this point as we don't use them much anyway.
