most likely...
they are probably 12V. Sounds like the typical plastic ones they use on RVs too. The slider is 1 lamp - 2 lamp - off. Easy to test - unplug shorepower. Cheers, Rob

switch?
take the bulb that works and put it in the other position. if it doesn't light, chances are that the switch is the problem. it may be corroded. take the fixture apart and check it out. it might be time to replace the entire fixture. rob is right about how it works - 1 light, 2 lights, off. galley and head are good places to use a clear bulb and a red bulb if you plan to do any night cruising. with the red in the '1 light' position, you can grab something out of the ice box or hit the head without killing your night vision.

Light Switch
More than likely the set up is like mine....the two lights are both 12v. Switch one way lights one the other way both come on....I have had lots of trouble with the contacts on the switch....try pushing the slider in as you slide left and right. This sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. Must have been made in China....Good luck...DAVE
