Overhead light out.

On my 06 Phaeton, one of the top 20" fixtures will not come on. I have checked the bulbs and fuses and these are not the problem. Will I have to replace the entire fixture, the ballast or a switch. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Most likely the ballast.
    They are available at most RV stores.

    You may want to upgrade to LED components inside the same fixture.

    You can check the voltage out for the bulb also. Trouble shooting will be the only way to figure it out.
