The rope lighting in my cabin isnt working. The lighting in the wall panels was working up until a couple weekends ago. Now i dont get anything. There are two switches located in the cabin, next to the entrance, marked "indirect" and "overhead" i believe. I checked and i am getting power to them switches, and even if i bypass them i get nothing. Could it be a ground issue? Any ideas where to look?

lights just went out maybe. Funny thing about boats eventhough the are maybe never got wet, the moisture will still get into things and rot things away. If you got power to the switch then its the lights its self I would thinkg.

anyone know where these lights get grounded? I only have hot wires to the switch.

That is all you should have on the switch is 12VDC + as the ground wire is run directly to the light.
