Default MX19 Docking and Courtesy Lights

I have a '91 MX19 that is running well. I'm trying to fix up a couple of minor items. Currently, trying to get the docking lights and courtesy lights working. I suspect a fuse, as none of those lights power on and the courtesy light switch on the console does not light up when engaged. Suspect either a bad switch or a blown fuse.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to attack this problem? Many thanks in advance!
Greg

    Electrical can be a bugger Greg.
    Check your fuses on both sides with a meter.(or at least a test light)
    Check power at switch and out of switch
    Just keep working down the line with your meter/ test light.
    A big issue on boats are grounding problems. Check and clean any ground you can find.
    Also check your bulb sockets also.
    Just a few common things to check.

    Is the fuse panel located behind the drivers' kick panel?

    Look up under the dash above the steering wheel next to the starboard side of the boat.
