2003 Open I just purchased has no indicator lights on the AC side of the panel. AC is working fine, just no lights. Is there a common ground or something else I should be looking at. There is a switch to turn the DC indicator lights on/off. It works. Thoughts???

Most likely a ground issue on the panel , the lights get connected at the breaker and use a common ground to there respective system .
any work done should be done with the a/c and the dc powered down . use a test meter and check for resistance to ground .
You should not have any resistance . if so clean the grounds and reconnect . If no continuity at all look for a broken wire.
Hope that helps . These are from my 1989 Tiara , had to replace all of the signal lamps on the 12 volt side as they were burnt out.
changed 2 breakers and added a new one at the same time.
All of the replaced lamps were changed to LEDS.
