Lights in slide not workung.

The overhead lights in the curb side slide in my Sabre 33ckts are not working. Both the pendant lights over the table and the puck style over the theater chairs. The small light located between the windows does work. Any ideas. I checked the fuses.

I would think that all the lights in the slide would be powered from the same circuit and if one of them is working then the break is most likely after that light.

I'd pull the light that's working out of the wall and see if there's wiring leaving it going to the other lights. If so then make sure you have voltage out of it.

You may wind up pulling the other fixtures out as well in order to find out where the voltage stops.

Keep in mind that it may be a broken negative wire as well.

BC, are these non working lights 110vac? If 12vdc and all fuses good, I would look underneath the slide for damage to the harness at the flexible support.... both on the slide end and the trailer end. On my nearly new XLR, the flexible thing that the harness is tied to was broken off on the slide end (not installed properly IMO) and was starting to chaff the protective wiring cover (that corrogated looking black plastic).

UPDATE: I pulled the fuse out and it looked good. I reinserted it and......let there be light!
It must have been loose.
