Interior lighting partial failure on a 2005 Triton

We are away in our Triton. Tonight, we have lost all the kitchen side and front dinette interior lighting plus rear bed lights on that side. Bathroom and front (bathroom side) lighting are still fine. No circuit breakers are tripped on the supply box. Anyone have any idea where else to look for a break in the circuit? All bulbs have been swapped to LEDs.

Thanks, Simon

I hate to say the obvious, but have you physically checked the blade type fuses as well. I recall they did not tally up with what they should have in the owners manual.

Normally circuit breakers are on the 240 volt mains circuits and the 12 volt (lighting, pumps etc) use fuses. It sounds like, rather sensibly, the lighting is split between two fuses and one has blown.

Excellent. Thank you for the advice. I Will search for that - in the dark, and with bed made up, I could only see the mains circuit breakers. Of course I had forgotten my copy of the manual I always (!!) carry with me…

Simon, here is a 2007 copy you can download. It should be similar, possibly exactly the same.

All sorted - a shorted out LED bulb. Thanks for the help
