Bad Ground Stumper
Our 2004 Jayco JayFeather 29Y has a wiring issue that I can't seem to figure out. I'm pretty sure I've got the problem pinned down to a bad ground, but I can't figure out WHERE that ground connection...

I would suspect that the Bargman connector was the issue if none of the marker lights were working, but that's not the case. The lower marker lights work, but the upper lights are out.
There is a junction box at the frame/tongue where the green wire for the parking lights coming from the connector also connects to two green wires that feed the marker lights. One of the two feeds the upper clearance lights, the other feeds the lower markers and running lights. I positively confirmed this yesterday.
fact that both terminals on the upper markers show 12v to a good ground and no voltage potential between each other is indicative of a bad ground for that whole leg. It's that ground I can't find (yet).
Also, when the gfci was tripped, it hasn't trained in a few days and I hadn't washed out yet. It did... rain later in the day, but not all that much.
