Fluorescent Lite on 2015 13' ???

I have been working on a charging issue with my 13" Scamp bought new in 2015.  The wiring diagram shows a 120V fluorescent lite but I have found none.  All lites are 12V.  Is this diagram in error?  Others experienced this?

Fluorescent light was dropped

It was over the sink on the older units. I do not recall the year, but it was dropped, my 2017 has none. Just as well, they only worked when you were plugged in, and with the modern LED lights they can be on for hours with out killing the battery.

Too bad their wiring

Too bad their wiring documentation is not being upgraded!

Updates

They did update their videos last winter. Many new on you tube. I hope they leave the old ones up also, many still in use. The wiring diagram in my book is close.

12V Fluorescent

Shortly after buying our Scamp 16' in 2006, I replaced the light with a 12V fluorescent that draws ~ 1.6 amps. It still works great and we have a real kitchen light wherever we are. Similar LED lights are now available.

My 2000 16' has one

Mine is wired from the back of the nearest outlet, only works on shore power, and is on the drivers side over the workspace next to the stove.
