Need some electrical help--'79 Tradewind

Hey guys....need some help. I recently got a 1979 Tradewind Land Yacht. The problem I have is some interior lights don 't work. None of the three switches on the right of the door frame work, the light on the right side of the couch work and the overhead interior light above the couch.
The light on the left side of the couch works, the rear bathroom light works, and the radio works too.
It seems like the interior lights on the right side of the trailer won't work. The exterior lights work when hooked to the truck too.
I replaced all fuses in the 12V fuse panel. When hooked to shore power I can hear the hum of the converter working.
The unit has a new battery? Any suggestions??? Thanks.....

Found the problem. In the 12V distribution panel, the middle relay has a trip switch on it. One quick push of the button and bingo, we have power!
