Blowing fuses on rear wall sconces

We have a Bighorn 3760 EL, and have started to blow 15 amp fuses on the interior rear cap. As far as I’ve found to this point, it only effects two 12-volt wall lights (sconces), but maybe more. No obvious source of shorting. The fuse panel identifies this fuse as “Rear wall/LP.”

Any thoughts on how to trace this down?

Ken,

I would start by examining the wires under the slideouts. The repeated flexing of wires exposed to road conditions and weather can cause wire insulation to break. At that point, exposed strands can short to metal components. I had a couple of wires going into the corner of one slide that needed repair.

Thanks - I’ll give that area look!
