Built-in LED ceiling lights

The original LED lights in my Greyhawk have started to fail, one by one. I replaced the two that are over the dining table. Jayco sent me those as I was just past the warranty. Now I would like to find a source to replace the others that are also failing. First they dim and then they don’t light at all. It is a pain to replace them because often the wires are very short in a confined place.
Does anyone have a reasonably priced source of these lights? Some are 4 1/2” in diameter and the others are 3” in diameter. The light fixtures do not have replaceable bulbs.

x2 We did buy a replacement at CW and after I got it put in, we were 800 miles away and find out it is the wrong color... Bright white instead of Warm white. It sticks out like awful...

By chance do your lights look like the attached ones? I ended up replacing all lights in my 2017 Greyhawk for free because this particular model was recalled as a fire hazard.

If yours are the same I can send info.

Thanks, JimD. I know they’re not blue but they may look like the second photo. I replaced the two about 1 1/2 years ago so I don’t remember exactly how they look. I’ll check as soon as I get the chance.

A call to Jayco in 2017 got me six free replacements. A call to the light manufacturer in 2018 got me four more free.

I found the exact ones on Amazon but they wanted like $30 a fixture.

If I were you (and I may be in this boat some day) I would replace the fixtures themselves with units that have bulbs, then convert them to LED. Then if you have issues, you can just replace the elements themselves without having to worry about replacing the entire fixture.

Call the MFG for the Lights
They are printed on the back of the failed unit.
They sent replacements for all of ours as they failed.
They will need the Model # which is on the back also.

JimD,
I finally replaced the dead LED overhead lights. They do not look like the ones you had in your Greyhawk. I bought some on Amazon which are 4 1/2” in diameter but the part you screw into the ceiling is slightly smaller than the originals. I had to improvise. The new ones are much brighter than the originals. Thanks for your help in identifying bad LED lights.
