No it does it without shore power and with. I still have not found any ground strips. It is to cold out to work on every day but I have taken a lot of panels off and not found anything yet.
It is hard to pinpoint as well as now most of the time the lights work properly but I am going to have to keep trying to solve, find some grounds or make new ones.
I do not like the frame grounds for what is called in a wire diagram "wire harness routing info" they are called
177 crossover to roadside and crossover to doorside (177) these are not the problem I am having but I do not like the ground attachments being right in the rear wheel wells wear they are going to be geting wet all the time I will fix these this summer.

Does this happen only on shore power? If you disconnect from shore power, are the lights stable? It does sound like a ground issue, assuming your lights are all 12v lights, at least the ones being impacted. My stick built house had a similar issue with some lights going dim and others getting brighter, and it was a floating neutral coming on on the main feed from the street.

HI new Pace Arrow owner here.
Read this whole topic it did take some time but well spent. It was rather depressing it seems I might be doing a lot more repairs than the modifications that I was looking forward to.
I have a 2008 33V (W22) not mentioned here but here is my Question.
Having what appears to be a bad ground problem with interior lights that do not work and make other light circuits glow. I do not see any other 33V's here but Fleetwood's should be similar. To cold up here to crawl around underneath yet. Are the circuits grounded at or near the fixtures or at a common lug point and where to look for them.
It could be a cold issue as it seems to fix itself after the furnace has warmed the unit up or may be I have jiggled enough wires or fuses.
Now I have have had the unit for a month not used it yet, but have been trying to get familiar with the systems on some of the warmer days. I am finding the wiring kind of a rats nest but all newer cars and trucks are as well.
