If your coach did not come with the outdoor kitchen unit in that bay, (curbside in front of drive axle).....then you might not have a receptacle there.

Disassembling overhead light facade in living area

Hey folks

For the lights that are located in the ceiling living area/living room of the coach (inside a wooden façade) how do you take it apart to get to electrical connections to replace bulbs?

You would have to remove the carpeted interior "floor" inside the cabinets I think. The wiring is between the wood bottom where the puck lights are mounted, and the carpeted interior "floor".
Before doing that though, you should be able to remove the fixture, and at least some wiring should pull down. Don't pull too hard, only till slack quits and you feel resistance.
Hope this helps, not sure if I'm doing you any good or not.
By wooden facade I'm assuming the cabinets above the couch and dinette?

Just a guess because I have never done it. I say this because we had one of the bulbs in the kitchen fall out a couple times because it was not secured well enough. The bulb twists in so I wonder when it is out if there is any access to the socket?

Yes if you twist the frosted glass cover off, the fixture is removable by two screws. The whole thing should pull down out of the hole.

I guess as referring to the wooden light fixture in the center of the ceiling that has accent lights. I’d like to see if I can install a ceiling fan In the living room like the one In the bedroom.
