Replacement LED Ceiling Lights

I now have 3 of my LED ceiling lights that are flickering. I’m going to be near northern Indiana next week. Does anyone know if there’s a local source there to get such things? Will Jayco sell me parts?

Jayco won't sell parts to anyone but a dealer. There's a few different brands and styles of lights used, if you have a brand from one, or can post a couple of pictures of what you have, that might help identify yours. Otherwise I'd stop in at the biggest RV dealer, and see what they have on the shelf.

Check over the light to see if the mfg left his sticker. Google search (like the CATScale) is your friend. Start searching and be patient. You may also get some replies with sources for lights and they may have some matches. Etrailer.com may have something.
Our ‘13 5th had all incandescent lights and I found LED replacement bulbs on eBay and Amazon. I’ve had some failures but I’ve paid so little for them and buy extras it’s not too big a problem, certainly not prob enough to go back to incandescent.

I replaced my incandescent bulbs with these LED boards I found on AMAZON. They also had the same LED Board that had a built-in regulator and I got one of those too when it did this. As it turned out the led board with the regulator chip on it radiated RF NOISE that interfered with my Ham Radio operations.

These are very inexpensive LED boards with sticky tape and plugs into the incandescent bulb socket inside the ceiling lamp...





I bought spares... These were from AMAZON

Answering my own question for the next guy: I found a retailer called Johnson’s Surplus in White Pigeon Michigan just north of the Indiana border that has a large selection of RV parts. I was able to find my LED recessed can lights there for about half the price of all the online sources. I believe they offer products via a website as well. Just FYI...

Good to know!


About half of the LED ceiling lights in ours failed within months. I called Jayco and without asking, they sent a box of six out. $0.00. A few more months and more failed. This time I called the vendor, ITC, and they sent out 3 for no charge.


Clearly they both knew they had a bad batch.


When another failed, I just ordered one off Amazon.

I like this thread. It would be great to find a source for LED packs that don't interfere with CB, HAM or Canbus and that don't get super hot or fail so regularly. As someone finds them to recommend please post a link.
