We have a 2015 KZ Connect Spree 322 and 1 of the 4 led lights that are over the sofa/dinette is not working. The camper is a year old and it has worked fine up until this past weekend. I'm not sure if I have a loose wire or burnt out bulb. I don't see a easy way to check. It looks like the entire fixture is part of the slide. I don't want to pull out and damage anything. Any suggestions?
thank you

We have a Stoneridge with resessed can lights in the slides. Ours are halogen but if your cans are the same as ours, the glass lens is threaded and screws off to access the bulb. The lens was on very tight but it did twist off with some effort. That will at least give you access to the bulb and you can check for current in the bulb socket with a test meter.

No easier way to check then to remove the bulb. A quick check of the socket (if you don't have a volt meter) is swapping bulbs from working/non-working sockets.

Some LED lights need to be have the polarity correct., try pulling the bulb out and turning it and plug it back in again

He said 1 of 4 is not working, but it sounds like it worked with a std bulb? Try another LED bulb, or rotate what you have to see my if you still have the same problem, or if it moves to a different light housing.

Thanks for all the responses. I will try and twist the cover off the light, it is on very tight when I tried this weekend so I stopped because I was not sure that was the best approach.

If your unit is a 2015, it should still be under warranty. If it's something beyond the bulb, might be worth a call to the dealer.

Thanks John...I just got it out of the shop for some minor warranty work and of course on the next trip the light went out. I have a 2 year warranty so if it is more than just a bulb I will have the dealer fix it.
