New here and need advice on awning light

We just purchased a 2020 Caravel 19CB from a private seller and I cannot seem to figure out how to control the awing light. I cannot seem to find how to turn it off. I am sure this is a dumb question, but my searches have come up with nothing. Thanks in advance for any help.

Should be a switch just inside the door. Most are on a dimmer slide switch

On our 2020 FC, it’s right next to the ceiling lights. Each has its own dimmer slider. Ours is clearly labeled. The two unlabeled switches above are for the subtle step light and the bright side light.
Are you flipping switches, looking for the light to come on, with the awning UP? You won’t see anything until the awning is extended.

Thanks, I think the problem was that my fumble fingers had not perfected the dimmer technique.

Glad you got it sorted. My reply was off because I was thinking you were trying to turn it on. Happy camping!

Sometimes those dimmer switches act funny.
