bed lights don't work

lobsta · 10-09-2015, 05:54 PM

I have a 2008 Fun Finder 189fbs.
All the lights work except for the two lights up front by the queen mattress. They are push button on/off. I've tried replacing the bulbs but no luck. All the other lights in the camper are working. I check fuses, but I didn't see any problems, and it would be strange to have a fuse just for those two lights.

I've been looking for a wiring diagram so I can try to troubleshoot further. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

Are they fed through a circuit with a GFCI which may be tripped or have gone bad? Try any outlets nearby to make sure there's power. If you find one without that's probably the problem.

Those lights are 12v and are likely fed from the nearest ceiling light. Get a VOM and check voltage at the sockets. If that fails, take the ceiling light loose and see if there are wires taking off toward the front and if they are attached.

You're right they are 12V - ignore the bit about the GFCI.

Thanks for the suggestions! Good idea about the ceiling light. I'll check that out. The closest thing in the ceiling isn't actually a light, but a fan. I just recently replaced the original fan with a new one. So there's a chance that there is a lose connection up there.
