porch lights wont work


I had the same problem, it turned out to be the switches on the lights, I cut out the switches and everything works, also on my 95pt40 the driver side light is controlled by a switch on th co-pilot seat as well as the electric cord storage compartment. good luck Ron Roberts 95pt40 "DOING IT"

I have two porch lights on the passenger side and one on the drivers
side rear. The two on the pass side are controlled by a switch inside
and the othe by a switch in the power box area outside. all three also
have a switch on the unit itself. Yesterday the only one that worked
was the one on the drivers side so while it was on I removed the bulbs
and put them in one of the other fixtures. it didnt work and then i put
the bulbs back in the one I took them out of and now it also doesnt
work. I had one pack of two new bulbs and I have tried them in all
three fixtures and none work.

Do all three of these lights share a common fuse? Is it possible that
it blew when I removed the bulbs with them being on?

I did find a diagram in the blue box that showd porch lights listed in
rf load center. I removed the big panel on the front outside of the bus
and it did not resemble the diagram. Any idea on where it is?

If yours is like mine one switch turns on the club side porch lights. Mine is located over the entry door. It is marked Porch. On that same switch panel is an acc switch which turns on the drivers side rear over the power connection box. There is also a switch outside for that light. There are also switched on the units. If the outside switch is on, the inside one turns it off and visa versa. If the switch is off at the unit, well???It ran me crazy until I figured out what was happening.
My right front load center is inside in the right overhead cabinet.
There may be nothing wrong one the switches are positioned correctly.?????
