Lamps not working in bedroom slide

I have a Sunseeker 2650S and the two lamps over the bed slide just stopped working. They were working when we first used the unit two weeks ago and this trip out they are not working. They are the type you push on and off to turn on/off. I cannot figure out howto open to see if its the bulbs.
Thanks

Carefully use a small flat screw driver to pry of the lens from the edges. The switch is in the center and lens has button that activates the switch.

Check the wiring under the slide. When the tech wired our trailer they did not push the wires into the connectors properly and the wires pulled out after several months. Easy fix just had to replace the inline connectors.

The slide is completely enclosed underneath so I cannot get to any wiring.

I assume you meant 2250 since the 2650 does not have a bedroom slide. You should be able to access the wiring by lifting up the bed and removing the bottom of the under bed storage area.

Had a light fixture that refused to come on this year. Pulled and tested every 12V fuse in the main panel. One fuse showed a small melted spot on plastic body and a slight scorch mark on fuse blade. Cleaned scorch and put back in.....problem solved. Might have two fuses marked for bedroom, so check both.

There may be a connector to a small receptacle on the wall low next to slide. May have come unplugged

We had this happen. I don't think (though someone said it is possible) to get to the insides. In any case we were still under warranty so they fixed it but if it happens again guess we'll have to try the screwdriver route!

Checked the fuse and it was just fine. Need to explore in the storage area under the slide. We just discovered the light in the storage area under this area is not working either.

Had a similar issue with lighting in the kitchen area. I called Prime Time and was told that the 12v lights that were out were wired in series. I found a crimp connector hidden in the cavity behind a light that was not properly installed. The connector had turned black from the heat caused by the loose connection. Replaced the connector and all is good.
