Have you looked for a blown fuse? The 12 volt fuses are located in the very front drivers side bay and there is also another fuse box located in the very rear left bay above the inverter. You could also have a wire that has come undone since lots of the lights are daisy chained together.

Bob, the fuse you are looking for is with the other coach fuses, electrical bay up front, on ours it is the #3 fuses that is marked bedroom, bath lights and fan. Would replace with known good fuse to start with.

thanks to everyone, no3putt your right. this morning i started checking again and found power to the fuse but not coming out. when i stuck my head in tne compartment and noticed the slip connector had a small brown spot on the plastic insulation. i pulled the connector off and it was melted. it looks as if the connector was arcing got hot and lost contact. i replaced the female connector and everything worked fine....thanks again !
