I just purchased a 2012 Keystone Cougar TT 27RLS. Putting junk in the front sto area I noticed a switch on the front wall next to the battery isolation switch. It looks like a light switch but when operated I didn't find no results. Anyone got one of these, help me out. Thank you very much for your response. Skip

that switch operates the led lights on each side of the front of the trailer
Also known as hookup lights to help at night

Enjoy the Cougar

Since your name is Marsland and you have "Landing Lights" on the front of you trailer are you also a little green man?

I would hope the OP would have noticed lights on the front of his unit and when he hit the switch they came on. Can't be what it is for

It surely can be what the switch is for!!I also have a Cougar and the switch is for the front LED lights. He probably didn't look as the switch is inside the front storage compartment and you can't see the lights from that position!


I was giving the OP some benefit. I assumed when he flicked the switch he took a walk around before coming on here.

======================

Woodglue, the O.P. said it was NEXT to the battery isolation switch so it can't that.My advice, contact Keystone with the VIN number of your trailer and ask them.
Happy trails,

Hahaha, you're right on that! Guess I wasn't paying close attention!
Thanks for the catch!WoodGlue
