Greetings
I posted about my taillight LED's going out a couple of years back.  I got new taillights from the dealer and used silicone caulk to seal them.  I found that the led's that failed had thick white caulk attached to the back of the taillight in the failed areas causing them to overheat from what I could tell.   You can buy high quality silicone from any RV dealer.

Thanks!  What adhesive/caulk should I use when I am installing the replacement tail light?

I would contact FR, their tech support is very helpful and will lead you in right direction. BTW Command has a website and that particular light is $20.95. Google is your buddy.

Anyone out there know where to purchase a replacement tail light?  A few of the LEDs (L1, L2 & L3)are always out and it frequently stops blinking altogether when I have the turn signal on.  It is a Command 003-6019 with other numbers 170-35.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!  It's for our 2015 179.
Thanks in advance!
