On my 88 model I have a set of lights 2 on each side. They are mounted on the compartment but for the life of me I can't figure out how to turn them on I have looked all over the dash for a switch. I can't seem to find anything that will work them. Would love some help so I can quit pulling my hair out. Thanks

Those are 'docking lights'.....there must be a switch somewhere with that label.

If not by the door then look at the switches in the overhead panel in the kitchen.

The "docking light" switch on our '92 is in the driver area on the wall just about where your left knee would hit if you hit the side with it. There are several other rocker switches in line with it.

Mine is next to my shifter....there are 8 switches there, including the Jake brake switch, horn switch, etc.

The two lights on each side mounted up high are yard lights. The rotary switches for those on my 93 is just inside door to the left. One operates the light beside the door only. The other rotary switch operates the other three. The docking lights are mounted lower near the drive wheels and are operated by a rocker switch on the drivers side wall area.

My 87 has 2 regular looking house style switches on the right as you enter the coach. They are marked "Yard Lights"
Hope this helps.
