Always look first to see if it's plugged in, that is, see if you are
getting power at the connector in the pantry.  Actually, check at the fuse
box at bottom of driver's door pillar first, it's easier to get
to.  Remember that the 12v only works when the engine is actually
running...if yours is one of those where the alternator light stays on
until you rev it a bit, you can listen for the relay under your seat to
close at the same time that the light goes off.  Camper wiring is at the
beginning of the wiring section in Bentley...
