Hi, hope someone wiser than me can help...
Roof lights stopped working in our 2005 Hawk. Pretty sure I've isolated the problem, and I don't think it's frayed wires behind the folding wooden panel that allows the camper roof to go up and down:

In my case, the wires behind the wooden panel look okay. As a test, I snipped them and ran wires from that point directly to the fuse box. Lights worked just fine.
So I'm pretty sure I have a faulty/damaged/corroded (?) section of wire somewhere in the inaccessible black hole behind the fuse box. Somewhere between that point and the folding wooden panel. If I could find the damaged wire, I could repair it w/ a butt connector and some electrical tape. But I can't find it. Because I can't access it.
Anyone know how to access that area on an '05 Hawk w/o tearing the thing apart?
Thanks!
