Rear Bunk LED lights DIM

Has anyone else had rear LED lights go dim. Usually happened within seconds on turning on switch. The two ceiling lights are dim and also the two wall lights - entire circuit it appears. I went to check with a multimeter when the lights were dim and the light sparked lightly and then when to full light out put. Looks like a loose or bad ground... where is the ground? On the buse bar behind the converter? I had it into warranty when it was new for same issue and they replaced all the lights and switches but it came back - intermitted condition. All the other lights in camper are bright.

I have had it both ways over the years.

Recently went into camper and the whole DC system down. Loose wire at the bus bar!

Ceiling light and a tail light were both corroded ground wires.

PS is it the same on battery and on shore power?

Thought of this thread last night when I was adding a USB to the bunk area off the main light feed. When I cut the black power wire all lights went out. Not surprising. What was surprising was when I cut the white ground they all dimmed but stayed on. Does seem you have a problem with the main ground.
