Major trailer upgrade! Radio Issue

Was excited to bring home the replacement for our old Coachman that has treated us and the original owner well for the last 35 years. You can't really compare it to the new 274 VFK. Looking forward to getting everything swapped over and setup.

First question.

Hooked up the camper to power yesterday. Ran into one issue the radio head unit. For the life of me I could not get it to turn on. It worked during the walk through so hoping it’s just something I’m missing. Looked through the fuses and they were all ok. Is there a switch you need to turn on before the unit can be powered up like the kitchen vent hood?

Probably would help if you posted make and model of radio, since different brands use different units.
Or a pic.

I had my Furrion lock me out from using the main controls. Maybe Bluetooth related? I used the remote for it to get it working normally.

Radio is the Furrion DV7200. Talked with the dealer. Sounds like there is a fuse behind the radio itself. Will be attempting to pull the radio out and check tonight.

Will have to look through the packet provided with the unit. I don't recall seeing a remote. Down loaded the Furrion app will check to see if I can connect to it before I pull it out of the wall.

Mine's a DV3050. The remote was with the paperwork along with the slip in PAWS television mount.
