Only problem so far (since May1st) arrived yesterday while we were camping...outside amber colored light won't turn on...I couldn't even figure out how to get to the bulb to see if it was burned out and/or replace it.  Anyone else have this happen?  Are the bulbs easy to find?  Now maybe Taller Half will let me put up party lights Thumbs Up

Ours has burned out and had to be replaced.  You have to pop off the cover and we got a replacement at Walmart.

Just asked my hubby - you squeeze the cover so that the small ears on it come over the edge of the light fixture.  He says it is a stiffer plastic than the light covers inside but works the same way.  It was a regular automotive bulb.

Ours burned out also.  I think the movement of the Pod during travel may have something to do with it. We now carry extra bulbs.  We purchased extra fuses at the dealer this week. I think they were 10, 15, and 40.  Don't hold me to that. Big smile Not real technical here. LOL
