Default 1993 Maxum 2300SCR courtesy lights

Have this boat purchased recently, have the courtesy lights (that one at a "step down" to the cabin and few others here and there) not working. Don't see any place/switch to turn them "on". Does anyone know where is a switch to turn 'on' the courtesy lights (or, maybe, they are turned "on" along with something else?) or where to look at to locate that wire at the "Switch and Breaker" panel and verify the voltage? Any info, which might lead me to identify a "wire" and resolve this issue. Thanks.

Welcome aboard

There should be a switch at the helm marked courtesy lights to turn them on.

Unfortunately, the labels for all switches were "wiped-out" over the time and 'thanks' to the previous owner's negligence. Found and labeled almost all of them on 'try this - try that' basis. 2 switches/labels from the right left unidentified with no wires connected and, therefore, no way to identify/lookup a wire for the courtesy lights.
Any lead/trace how to find out that wire would help greatly (almost sure it is somewhere in close proximity to those 2 switches with no wires connected). Maybe, the boat has some places (voids or doors/access points) to access the wires and trace the wires route (somehow ) - ? Thanks.

Guess I would look at what color wires are on the light fixture and see if you can match that to any of the switches. Then verify the switch has power.
