Re: V Berth Lights
Check your circuit breakers?
Any chance these 2 lights are 120v and you're either not plugged into shore power or the appropriate circuit breaker is off?

I've had lights that had both switches on the fixture and a wall mount switch. Obviously, both have to be turned on

Yes they do have a separate switch but I've removed the light(s) and checked for power before the switch with and without the other light switch on.

They didn't work during the survey - 1 1/2 years ago. They are LEDs so certainly 12V. The wiring diagram is only a schematic so does show any detail and/where wiring runs from or to?
