I think I found it - I looked at the TM parts list and it had "RVPL7CB Black Oval Porch Light" listed. A quick Google search came up with this:
https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Lighting...s/RVPL7CB.html
which looks like what is on my 2020 2922KB.

Thanks, friend. I slaved in another working light and it doesn't light up either. The other two lights (porch light and further down by awning) work as advertised. This one not working is on the top front corner next to the rock shield cover. Probably took most of the weather up there. So, I guess I have a wiring issue with this light only. The wires are extremely short and near impossible to reach from inside.

Just to be sure ... do you have an "All lights off" switch on the panel just inside the entry door? The light you mention is controlled by this switch.

Yes, also made sure the porch light switch was on.

Hey Teach- Have you made any headway on this?

No, decided not to disect the inside. I wouldn't think there is a fuse link controlling this one light. Guess I can live with it unless someone else had the exact fixable issue.

Again, just to be sure ...
1. You slaved in another light. Did you connect the slave unit to the ends of the wires coming out of the wall, or clip it to parts of the existing light?
2. When you slaved in the second light, did you create a shiny new ground point on the aluminum skin, and use that for the test? More than 90% of "lights don't work" problems seem to be due to a bad ground. Remember, aluminum oxidizes very quickly, so if you simply touch a wire end to an apparent bare spot on the aluminum skin, you may well touch non-conductive aluminum oxide unless you scrape it clean.

Hey Teach- Ok so let me know if this works on your new TM. On mine the front utility light is wired into the running lights. Plug the trailer into your tow vehicle and turn on the running/headlights. The utility light on the camper should now turn on via the switch on the bottom of the lamp.
