Is this a 120 volt light or a 12 volt light? In our rig, on the ceiling of the large curb side slide, we have one of the fixtures is a 120 volt and the other is a 12 volt fixture. Until you determine that, you will not know where to start looking. I assume you have checked for hidden switches in places that make no sense.

If the light is on a slide, power normally comes from beneath the slide and enters at the corner. Depending on floor plan, you may have to look behind a panel for a junction box. There may also be a flat junction that had come apart.

110 power is often the coiled "extension cord" probably black and 12V is two conductor braided wire in a split loom.

the lites i mentioned are 12 volt, the press in blade base type.

Is just that fixture dead or are there other 12V lights on that slide that are dead too.

On our '07 RK model the the 120v and 12v power enters in the rear corner of the slide. Below is a photo of the plastic covering the buss bar shared by the high and low voltage. This was under the dinette that I removed and was originally black before I added the outlet and painted it to blend in a little better. The switches on those overhead lights are not the best quality and fail often so before I would go too crazy tracing wires, I would remove the fixture and check for power there. JM2¢, Hank
