Are they located near the gear selector or on the dash? I'm pretty sure the "map" switch is for the overhead ceiling lights above the cockpit. the Aux switches could just be for accessories in the event you need a switch for one.

I have a manual from an01 surfside and the AUX switch is for add on items ( dash fans or )
If the light dont come on when you turn on the map switch you may need to turn the light on with it own switch, then the map switch will control that light.
Have fun learning.

Great. Could I suggest something to you? In the future it would be very helpful to explain as much as you know about the problem or question you have in your first post. This will avoid the 20 questions you'll get if you don't. For instance, know where those switches were located would of really helped to figure out what they did. You never did answer that question.

We have had a 99 Sea View since October 2006. The "Map" switch turns on the power to the 2 bulb light directly above the driver's right shoulder, it is powered by the engine (chassis) battery and will discharge your battery if you leave it on without the engine running  (I speak from experience) "Aux 1: and Aux 2 are most likely empty as they are for options that may or may not have been ordered when the coach was new. The "Stereo" switch will also discharge the engine (chassis) battery.
If I can be of any more assistance please let me know.
