Bathroom and back overhead lights out in '72 TW

So from time to time the light in the bathroom and the last overhead light go off for a while and usually come back on. Thought that there were wires in the back closet that if movement in there causes the connection to go bad but on my last outing they went out and couldn't locate the break in connection in the closet. Haven't checked the fuse yet. Has anybody tracked down this wiring/circuit? Also the front overhead light didn't come on either but the middle one was fine.

RichHog,

I have been down that same road, I will share the knowledge I have gained from here! All the lighting wire runs are in the center panel. Have you checked the fuses in the univolt? Do you have power to the switches? I'm sure someone else will add to this.

Light Switches

Well the back lights came on about 12:00 as I was drifting off to sleep so I switched them off. It's intermittent for sure. Could be the contacts on the fuse in the univolt as more than one light is effected.

My guess would be a loose wire. My 76 Argosy did the same thing. Randomly, I replaced the fuses and it still happened, moved some wires and magic, it came on and now stays on, or so it did until I sold her.
