I just bought a 1992 Dolphin and have quite a few projects in my future. I have some marker lights that need replacement right away, so I figure instead of replacing with the same lights, I should think about upgrading to LED. I'm trying to be cost efficient and not invest in anything I want to replace later, even though the cost is minimal. My question is, if I were to swap out all of the marker lights in the rear with LED instead, is there anything I would need to do other than simply connect the wires and attach? Eventually, I would want to replace the headlamps and interior lights too. I have read that the headlights would require a new wiring harness and that for an RV, LED lights should have a voltage regulator. I'm not sure what to look for or avoid, or if swapping even the marker lights to LED could involve more than I realize. I'm a newbie, both to owning an RV and also doing this work, so I would appreciate input that explains this in simple terms. Links to low cost lights also appreciated. Thanks!

What's up guys - I just bought a 1990 Toyota Winnebago and have been working on it daily. Currently, I am replacing the standard light fixtures with LEDs. I was replacing the first fixture and started stripping the two wires to connect to the new LED fixture and as I stripped the second wire, half of the lights went out on one side of the rig while the other stayed on. I now realize that stripping wires with all of the power on was not a good idea..The air vent fan doesn't work either. The RV has a 250 watt solar system attached to it. I checked the wiring with a probe and all of the wiring and devices that are not on (lights, air vent fan) have power coming into them, so they are hot. Any advice on how to get the power back on and what the issue could be? Thanks in advance.
