Bedside Wall Lamps Not Working

I have a 1994 Fleetwood Southwind Class A motor home. I bought it used, and the bedside wall lights have never worked. I have the proper bulbs in the fixture, but they still don't work. There is no switch on the wall lamps, however there is a small hole in each lamp. I think they are operated with the main bedroom switch. Can anyone help me resolve this problem??

    Good Luck.

    If the switches are in the assembly, and you discover they don't work. They are easily replaced. I picked up new switches at 2 different RV Stores.

    They seem to be a fairly common item.

    Ditto.

    Just replaced the switch in one of the lights. Picked up a backup switch for the other bedroom light which is starting to flicker when using the switch.

    Take the lights off and see if the switch is for some reason inside the light assembly. If the outer switch nut came off the switch could easily be inside the light assembly.

    Easy fix. Or Replace.
