Mystery switch mystery solved

 

We have a three ganged switch under the counter that contains the microwave and is just above the sink. We quickly found that the middle switch controlled the lights under that cabinet and the switch on the right controlled the lights over the dinette. The switch on the left was another story. We could not find anything that it operated. Finally fired off an email to Thor asking what the switch was for. We knew it had wires connected because we had taken the switch out to see. After a few days Thor sent us a diagram with the circuits highlighted. The claim was that the switch in question controlled strip lights under the kitchen counter. So armed with this information we went out to the coach in search of those strip lights. No strips lights. So we poked our head inside the cabinet with a flashlight and discovered a pair of wires with attached butt connectors just lying on the floor. Took a 3 foot long grabber and fished them out and connected a VOM to the ends. Sure enough the mystery switch turns 12 VDC on and off to the wire pair. Now to find my old supply of strip LED’s.
