    My basement lights went out on me and I'm unable to locate a fuse for them.  Check the box near the rear slide (house fuses), the box in the dash to the left of the driver, and the fuse relay center under the hood.  Is there another box I'm missing?  Everything else seems to work.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Funny (to us) story.  The lights in our basement didn't work, or so we thought.  We looked for fuses and replaced bulbs.  Still no lights so we made a point not to need anything after dark.  This went on for more than six months before we mentioned it to someone.  They said "Is your master switch turned on?"  We said "What master switch?"  Come to find out, the switch on our dash board that was labeled Luggage Lights was in the Off position.  Once we toggled it to the On  position, we had basement lights!  Do you possibly also have a master switch for the basement lights that is turned off?  We had no idea we had a master light switch or that Luggage Lights meant basement lights.  We also now have spare bulbs.

    You might want to check the switch on the dash first to make sure it is not turned off. That happened to me once, tried to get the basement lights to turn on and they would not. Finally remembered there was a switch on dash that I turned on and they then worked! Good safety feature that I had forgotten about. Don't want to accidentally leave a light on, then run your battery down.

    I had to contact Fleetwood.  The rep was very helpful and sent me the schematic for a fuse box I didn't know existed.  Unfortunately the schematic didn't match, but it was the right fuse box.  I pulled every fuse until I found the one that was blown.  This happened just before we pulled out for a three week trip so we were happy.  Just returned safely. (BTW, I don't have a master switch on the dash)
