Back in November 2021 I replaced some malfunctioning recessed LED lights in the kitchen / galley of our coach.
The half bath also had three lights that weren’t working properly, either very dim or flashing. We have a couple of motion-activated lights in there, and generally don’t use the ceiling lights, so it hasn’t been a high priority. But I finally got around to fixing them.
Here’s one of the old lights, with the cover removed:
A replacement light:
I replaced the first of the three lights with wire nuts, as I had for the previous replacements, but for the second I thought I’d try heat shrink wire connectors, since that is what Tiffin used throughout the coach:
I got a hot air gun to use with those:
The replaced light, using those connectors, before heat shrinking:
Done:
The third light was trickier. The wires were very short; too short to use those connectors:
But I came across a cunning technique: putting a wire cap in the end of a drill, to get more reach and leverage in twisting them on:
It wasn’t easy, but I got them connected using that technique:
The replaced light mounted:
And with the cover on:
All three replaced lights (the ones that are off didn’t need repairing; only the three vanity lights):
I’m glad to have that repair finally done.
