I sure wish the motorhome manufacturers would give a person a schematic of how the wiring is run, rather than a "typical wiring diagram" that is less than useless. I have one storage bay light that won't work. Bulb is OK, no 12VDC to it, yet all the others work fine. I suspect it is fed from another 12 volt light as I dont' think they would run all separate, but to find which one, hmm duh here.
Usually I wouldn't put too much into fixing it, but unfortunately it is the light in the water/sewer bay that I probably use the most.

LOL, there is an unidentified switch by your left knee when sitting in the driver seat. It controls the power to the utility bin light. Actually there are three switches with inscrutable markings, the middle one, if it is anything like my '04 Southwind controls the Utility Bin light. Another one controls the fog lilghts and the third controls the under hood light, a great way to run down your battery without any good reason, you can only see it when you walk in front of the coach after dark. Ask me how I know!

My 2003 Pace Arrow had the same problem then I found the dash switch that turned them on. If its in the utility bin this switch is off I spent several hours working on the light tracing wires and my wonderful wife bumped the switch by accident and presto the lights came on. On my coach the switch operated the utility bin abd a poarch light above the utility bin. I would check the dash switches first.
