forward interior lights do not turn on with light switches

The interior lights from the entry door to the rear of my 34' Bounder all turn on via their individual light switches. The interior lights from the entry door forward do not when I turn on the individual light switches??

I appreciate your suggestions and advice!

  • Sorry to be absent, but just got to addressing the problem. And yes Craig, it was a blown 20 amp fuse. It turns out that the forward lights appear to be on a separate fuse than the rear coach lights. I am relieved to have a simple fix. Simple things can seem complicated when unfamiliar!

    Thank you all for responding to my request. Much appreciated!
  • In our coach, the forward ceiling lights are controlled by a switch on a panel on the side of the stair well that also has switches for the porch light and steps.
  • In our MH only a few overhead light fixtures are controlled by the wall switch. There are more fixtures that are not, those are on their own...
  • Thanks Craig. Yes, I am talking about the switches on the 12v light fixtures. But with 4-5 overhead fixtures and 2-3 wall fixtures all not turning on from their own switches, is there a separate wall switch that operates these?

    Or are the rear lights on a separate fuse from the forward lights?
  • If you are talking about the 12v lights, each light has its own switch on the fixture. That switch has to be on for the wall switch to work. If you are talking about only the switches on the fixture and the lights not working I would lead to a fuse blown. Track down the 12v fuse pannel and look for the blown fuse.
