2012 Cougar Ultra lite dining light repair
The switch went out on our dining light and I didn't mark how I took it apart. Now I'm not sure what wires go where. From the ceiling I have 2 solid white wires that come down together and 2 white/red...

I can't see your wires and your description is pretty weak. I don't know if we are talking a 12V light or a 120V light so it is really hard to give any good advice. Maybe if you could provide some more very detailed information and a sketch it would be better. But in general I can tell you this.
1. At the switch, all of the ground wires are tied together, bundled up with a wire nut. All of them.
2. At the switch you should have a "feed" wire, "hot" from the circuit breaker. I don't know what color it is cause it could be red, black, or white depending on 120V or 12V.
3. The "feed" connects to one of the wires from the switch. Doesn't matter which one.
4. All of the "loads" to the light (there could be more than one depending on how many "fixtures" are on the light) all go on the other side of the switch.
5. Switch on the feed lights up the loads. Switch off and the feed is disconnected from the loads.
Now if your actually talking about a two function light such as a fan and light combo unit, that is supposed to work on separate switches then we have to start all over. If the "feed" actually travels to another fixture from this box, and feeds another load somewhere else in the trailer, have to start all over again. That's why I say Not Enough Information to give credible advice.
