Garage interior lights and rear loading lights not working

These lights worked fine for my first few trips. Then the would only come on once in a while. Now not at all. The electric beds work fine as does the overhead fan. Both sets of lights worked and stopped working simultaneously.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Not sure how yours is set up. Are they on the same switch or a dual switch or 2 separate switches. If they are on the same switch, or a dual switch, I would pull the switch out and check the hot wire for the switch. It may have come loose or disconnected.

Also check the fuse panel. I had the same problem with some lights on mine. When they put the fuses in from the factory they bent the tab they slide into and the connection was lost after a few trips. Took me forever to find. After that I went and pulled all the fuses one by one to check them all and found one more bent tab.

I would also check for a blown fuse, would be odd if all lights were bad but just as odd to have only these lights on one fuse. On my Raptor just happens that the two sets of interior garage ceiling/cabinet lights and the rear loading lights are together in a three switch set. Therefore my guess is that they are all being feed from the same 12 VDC at that switch. As suggested may want to pull the switch and see if you have power to it. If like mine and they are are being feed from one 12 VDC source will fine few wires connected together at the power source and may need to check connection.
Good Luck

Also check for a good ground. That is often the problem when multiple circuits go down at the same time. They may have a common ground.

Fuse was installed incorrectly and only had one side inserted. Easy fix. Thanks to all for suggestions.

On a second note about the rush job when they build these things. I found an empty tube of silicone in the underbody panel that had been bouncing around the entire time I've owned it. Still a great camper, but nothing is perfect.
