Led awning light

If length matches the width of the sliding door then I had the same problem. It's a Dometic Raintec RT100 and I purchased the product from AS to retrofit to the Kemerton. Within a year several LEDs had failed and AS agreed to replace the LED tape strip under warranty as I didn't want to remove the whole unit. Sliding out the defective tape strip and in with the replacement was fairly straightforward, just as described above by KMRTOPAZ. If you're handy with a soldering iron and are able to make the cable connections weatherproof then you should have no problem.

I don't think Dometic sell just the tape strip for the Raintec so either go to AS Parts Dept or look for a suitable tape strip from a specialist LED supplier.  If you go down the latter route (quite possibly cheaper than AS) it needs to be IP56 weatherproof rated, which will mean it's encased in a rectangular profile clear silicon sleeve. Check the width matches, make sure it's a 12V tape (some are 24V) and look to match the same number of LEDs per metre. You'll need to request a soldered cable connection on the tape or be prepared to do it yourself, and you may need to seal the ends of the silicon sleeve. I can recommend the following supplier, who carry a wide range of tapes and who I've used many times for lighting projects:

Ron, you’ll have a different type of awning light to the one I’ve described, which is designed for van conversions.
