larcar Report post Posted June 26, 2020 My kitchen ceiling light bulbs failed and when I tried to change them I could not twist the bulbs to remove them. I finally got one bulb out and found a plastic ring holding the bulbs in place. How do I replace the bulbs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jleamont Report post Posted June 26, 2020 larcar, have you considered swapping them out for LED? When we bought this coach it had several lights out inside and failed ballasts. I found it more cost effective to do an LED conversion at that time than fussing with the existing light bulbs and ballasts. The LED strips were so bright I only needed one where there was two florescent bulbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaypsmith Report post Posted June 26, 2020 Ditto to led's, but it is even simpler now as there are led bulbs to just take out the fluorescent bulbs and insert the new bulb into the old socket and rewire eliminating the ballast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted June 26, 2020 I am thinking the plastic is some kind of safety retainer for the bulbs. I would be inclined to look at swapping them out for leds. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted June 26, 2020 I went the other route as my sockets were worn and those tubes were costly. After a trip I had to walk around and wiggle the tubes to get them to turn on if we wanted all of the interior lights to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
