Hidden wires to dead light fixture
I don't really expect to have anyone come up with an easy solution to this, just wondered if anyone had similar problems, and what did they do. I have a non-functioning double light fixture above m...

Not sure which model you have - 2104S? Below is a pic of slide area - shows 1 light in the slide. Is this it?
Is there a separate switch or integral with the light(s)? As mentioned, first suspect would be a splice that has gone bad. They don't exactly do a good job at the plants of twisting stranded wires together along with a wire nut. If there are no other 12 volt problems, it would most likely be a splice problem, then damaged wires.
If the light is in the slide, look for the wiring under the slide. There may be a junction box that is accessible. Check for a bad splice and power there. There will be a flex arm thingy that lets the wire move as the slide goes in and out. See if anything is damaged there. Try pulling the wire out from behind the light. Sometimes there is a lot of excess wire that gets shoved in behind the light and there could be a spice in there. Same with the switch.
I don't think there will be much to gain by pulling the radio out to access wiring. There is no rhyme or reason how they run 12 volt wiring and the slide light could be connected to a 12 volt circuit feeding other items anywhere.
I have the 2104 model, no S. They don't make it anymore, and I wouldn't want to trade it for the new floor models. Mine has a Murphy bed, but no slide outs.
