Does anyone by any chance have a DC wiring schematic or diagram for the cabin? It's not in my factory manual and I have a bank of lights that's out. I've been troubleshooting the wiring layout, but things aren't making sense.
P36-2 cabin DC wiring diagram

Start with the terminations. This particular model, the 36-2, is kind of a wiring nightmare. Wiring chases are too small for R&R of old wiring, piles of wire run through the bilge, 10ga wire feeding the entire DC panel from the batt switch, wires run directly through the fiberglass grid with no chafe protection etc.. I looked for a factory diagram in my customers documentation and could not find it. The eyeball lights have a tendecy for the switches and sockets to fail so check for voltage at the wires themselves. The eyballs can be rebuilt with new switches and sockets if necessary.. The Guest style lights, like above the nav desk & oven, are terminated inside the fixture...
Thanks for the reply. Ive actually cut many of the cabin light fixture terminations, so I can isolate the wire runs and take voltage and continuity readings right at the wire. What's strange is that it's only the galley area that's out. It seems dc wires wrap around boat in a CW direction, stopping at each fixture. However, the rear cabin lights still work. There are two positive DC wires at breaker, which tells me there are two runs. The funny thing is that in the time I've been troubleshooting, I could have run a new run to this bank, but I just hate leaving this sort of stuff unsolved.
