We're talking about Forest River, and several different plants, and production lines, plus differences between east and west regions. My 2019 rpod 171 has a docking light with a plugged up switch cover.

The switch is just inside the door, near the floor.

The first pic is from under the cover so the ambient lighting and colors are kinda 'off' a bit.

The aftermarket light you see in the interior picture is one that I added, but the black switch was there when I bought the rpod and it controls the docking light.

What year? My 2015 179 has the switch on the light too. I would think that if they changed to a remote switch it would have been for all models at the same time, otherwise they would have to maintain stock of two work light SKU's.

+1. I don't think there is a switch from the factory at the floor level near the door. The breaker and fuse panel is located there, that's about it.

I don't know the answer regardless, but we still need more info. What year model is your 178? I'm guessing your Pod is used and that this is something custom that the previous owner installed, maybe because that was the only place he could access behind the paneling. If it's a new Pod it's not that, of course.

Mine doesn't have that.But, the first thing would be to hook up to power and turn it on and see what happens. Look, particularly, for outside lights that come on.
