Discovery 40x light problem

On our Discovery 40x 2008 we have a switch just inside entry labeled ceiling lights that would turn on the forward most recessed lights in the coach. The switch itself would also light up. Following a hail storm last week where the roof took a pounding, the lights will not come on. Switch still lights up but not the lights.

Anyone know where a fuse or breaker for these lights might be?
Guess I better check all electrical system!

Do the light fixtures in question have individual ON/OFF switches?
Mine do ...if the switches on the fixtures are OFF the switch at my entry door does nothing.

Well I guess the hail beat the roof so bad it blew bulbs in both front lights. Swapped bulbs with a working light and they work! I suspected worse cause we had the covers fall off during storm! This is what was falling.

Make note, there is nowhere to hide in a RV when it's hailing!

Say stranger! We were about 40 min. from home, at Hot Springs! Was worried the storm would move across and hit my S&B, but it turned and hit south. Hope everything going good for yall, looking at heading west later in summer, possibly Moab by late Aug. or early Sept. Still don't have a Jeep, but will most LIKLY just rent one. Tell Sharon hello from us!
