Port side...the 3 main cabin ceiling lighs do not come on. SB side and the 3 just below the bow facing windows work.
Am I not seeing another light switch or...need to remove the ceiling panel and do some diagnostics??

My main cabin lights in my 405 are on a switch by the stairs going out to the sundeck any switch in the area on your 356?. Have you taken a bulb from one of the ones that are working and swapped it into one of the non working lights, that's a easy way to check or grab a volt meter and check for voltage in the lamp socket. I doubt your going to need to remove any panels to get this working.

The 355 has the light switch next to the sliding cabin door. So...removed the wall switch...wiring seems OK. Don't want to have to take down those ceiling panels for wiring diagnostics... no choice though.
Appreciate your reply.

Could be a bad connection at the last good light or the first bad light.

I’m assuming this is a new to you boat? Was the issue noted in your survey report?
