The DC wires for the bathroom fan and the lights are in the bedroom ceiling and could be next to the coax that goes to the antenna by the crank up handle. That coax is powered 12v when the antenna boost is on. There is a coax connector (exposed metal) in the ceiling close to the crank up handle that joins the coax from the Winegard panel to the coax coming down in the antenna mast.
So WAG #1 is a DC wire has a break in its insulation that is touching the coax connector by the crank up handle.
You can get at that coax connector by taking the crank and twirler off and see the hole in the ceiling. Then hook (finger or bent coat hanger, whatever)on any coax you can see and pull it down out of the hole till the connector is out and tape it up so no exposed metal. (You can't get at the DC wires most likely, but you can get at that coax connector)
WAG #2 is the fuses in the DC panel for the TV, fan, and lights have a loose wire or two in the fuse panel mixing things up.
