No power on passenger side lights

I have 2003 Dolphin LX 6320. None of the lights on the passenger side work - spot light behind passenger seat, light above the sink and light in the toilet. I am guessing a fuse?

Does anyone know where the fuse for that circuit might be? Anything else that may be causing this?

Thanks.

If your coach is like most, all fuses for coach 12v (and breakers for 120v) are in the CONVERTER, (OFTEN located under kitchen sink, SOMETIMES under bed, SOMETIMES in bath. Think about where your shoreline cable comes into coach, usually found very near there. If no fuse blown, pull 1-2 bulbs and look at them

You need to find that fuse box first thing and check those fuses. No point wasting time on much else until that is done. If all fuses are good then got to first light, pull the bulb and test the two connections with a multimeter. You can get simple and cheap ones from Home Depot, Lowes, Harbor Freight, etc this is very basic troubling shooting tool for anything electrical.

You should see something like 12 to 13 volts if the circuit is good to that point. If no voltage, then the circuit is open someplace between there and the fuse box. Make sure any switches are on. I don't know if you have a wall switch or only a switch on those light fixtures. If there are switches, you might pull the switch out of the wall and check the wires at that point. Usually a black and white wire. But check that fuse box first.

Thank you all. I did isolate the problem to a 15a fuse in the battery compartment.

Too easy. (I had looked there earlier but all looked ok. Second look and bingo there was the blown fuse)

Thanks again.

I have made a list of all fuses, locations, fuse type and sizes. Also keep a few of each type and size in stock in the RV.

Good plan. I also have a supply and a puller that has a tester on the other end.
