Wildcat 30LOFT - What is the second switch for, next to the light switch in the bathroom, at the sink?
I recently bought a WC 30LOFT, but I cannot figure out what the one switch is for.
There are a total of three switches in the bathroom. 2 of which works the lights in the bathroom, but I cannot figure out what the 3rd is for (It is the second one at the sinc.) When I switch it on, no lights come on, but it seems that whatever it switches on, pulls some power, as one can notice the lights dimming slightly. Can anybody please tell me what the switch is for?
Regards,
Gustav

Congrats on your 30Loft! We love ours!
Its for your scare light on the curb side. Flip it on and run around the Cat and you will see...
Took me about 2 hours to figure that one out on our 30Loft!
Throw any and all questions out here and someone will answer. Great site and people on here.

I had to laugh when I read that one. It drove me nuts trying to figure out what it did. I finally gave up and decided it wasn't hooked up to anything. Then one night I hit the switch by accident and wondered who was shining a light outside!

What a place for a switch to a scare light.

I thought so too, but at least the left & right side scare lights are on separate switches.

I believe they are put there just in case something scares the you-know-what out of you. While you're in there you can turn on the scare lights.

I think I would do something else first. Maybe that is why they put it in there.

Nice to see another 30LOFT owner. We just got ours in February and haven't had a chance to do anything with it yet, that is until this weekend. We have it at home getting it "outfitted". I have already redone quite a few factory mess ups and have a few more to go.

This must be an east coast model. I can not find it on the FR web site.

It must have been discontinued or renamed here is the floorplan I found on a old post.

Forest River discontinued this model last year. We got a really, really good deal on it! All we had to do is drive up to Muskeegon to get it.

Hi HookMeUp,
Are there any specific factory mess ups that I should look out for? We have also not used ours yet, but I cannot wait.

Hi,
Thanks for everybody for solving the light switch mystery. It was for the curb side light.
Happy camping.

Our bed frame broke from the tension of the struts. The piano hinge pulled lose from the cross brace, screws where only in about quarter inch from the edge, thus pulling the brace across the front off of the wall because only one screw was into a stud. I added a couple of 2x6 cross braces, one at the hinge area and one at the strut location. Solid as sears now.
Today I decided to cleanup the wiring area in the front comparment and install a second battery. Well about half the connections were lose! Also the connections for the landing legs motor were lose also.

That was one of the reasons I decided to do mine. Most of the crimp on connectors were loose if you pulled on them they would of came right out. I recrimped AND soldered them!!!!
