Electrical issues

I need assistance in finding electrical short on my 2003 avatar 39ft.
head of bed lights, bath room light, hall light, kitchen light, and lights on each side of couch do not work. All lights not working are on road side of coach.

First try the GFIC plugs resetting all of them. If that does not work trip all the breakers and reset. From that point you may have a short or loose ground. You would need to remove the plates and test the wires.

Welcome to irv2. This sounds like a 12 volt issue. Hopefully someone can point you to that fuse box so you can look for a blown fuse.

Think about what you typed.. Lights in an RV are 12 volt. GFCI is 120 volt.
