Courtesy lights not working
 
Anybody out there have problems with courtesy lights? I've replaced all the bulbs. I have a 2000 Jubilee 214. Thanks in advance!

If fuses are good I would bet on a bad connection somewhere, which are never fun to hunt down. I would suggest tracing it from wherever you can access the circuit and testing for voltage or continuity until you find the issue. Don't forget to test for a bad ground, too.

My new to me Mariah had a couple of circuits that weren't working consistently and they were resolved this summer when I replaced the fuse block and all fuses.

The fuse maybe good but is the fuse block good and tight on both ends of the fuse. My 96 180 has
The most cheepest fuse block I ever seen. The fingers that hold the fuse where spread out
And only touching on one end of the glass fuses on some of them

Are they oval lights or square swivel lights?

Its a time consuming process, but here are a few suggestions for you to try. Check to see if the switch is working properly. Using a test meter, turn the switch on and off and see if you get 12 volts. I believe that these lights are wired in series. disconnect the wires from one light at a time, make two jumper wires from the battery and wire directly to light to see if the light does work. If it does then work your way from each light back to the switch. Hope this helps you!
