Bedroom Light Fixture

I am at a campground in Indiana and one of the ceiling light fixtures in the bedroom will not turn on.  Are the two fixtures on a separate circuit? Are the breaker for those lights in the bay behind the panel?

Howdy John,  I don't "think" they are.  This print shows it's Ckt #2 in the 12vdc panel located at the foot of the bed.
Good Luck, Dave A

If the bulb checks out, look at the switch.  FT Parts has them.

John, if you are looking at the two fluorescent fixtures, try taking the bulbs and pulling them out and replacing them. The ones in our bedroom give us fits. If you hit a bump just right, one or the other will conk out.
If it is the fluorescent fixtures it could also be that one of the bulbs is toast or the transformer.
Good luck.

When through the process of checking things out and found that one of the bulbs was loose in the fixture contacts.  Just like you said Len.  When I get to Florida one of my projects is to replace all of the interior lighting with LED.  In the process I learned that Foretravel did not leave me any room to pull the switch panel out. I loosened all the screw and no slack to pull it out.  The only way in there is through the tv compartment or the first drawer.  There may be a cable tie holding the wire bundle.

Again thanks everyone,
