Wife and I left Lower MO on Easter Sunday for a "pretend we're retired" trip to New Orleans and then to Gulf State Park, all in a week. Stayed at Canton, MS for a quick overnight but now at Pontchartrain Landing in N.O. a place we have stayed at many times. Anyway, on our trip down, our bathroom, hallway, and overbed lights all went dark. We survived the first night. Yesterday on our arrival at N.O. I wanted to see if I had a hot wire at the hall light. Using a "for sure" negative at the converter, I confirmed I had a hot wire at the fixture. So I cobbled a small test lead toe gruond and got all three sets of lights working. I was sure it was a ground thing and now I know. I ran a ground over to the adjacent ceiling AC receptacle and all is good, but I would like to find where the neg (ground) wire might be attached to ground when I get back so I can properly repair this. Yes, I should look at the wiring diagram but that is "schematic" and I know someone can rattle this off the top of their head....and besides I am pretending to be retired. Thanks in advance.
