Dash radio not powering on

Hi everyone I have a 2013 3170 and the dash radio bit the dust a second time. Looking to replace. Question is for those of you who replaced the magnadyne. What did you replace it with. I do not need gps. Thanks in advance.

Several of us with Magnadynes in the 2012-2014 era went with Kenwood. I went with their DDX470 model, which does not have GPS. Install did require a lot of wire splicing. We are happy with it - after about 5 years, a couple hundred nights camped, and probably 60K miles. That model Kenwood I believe is no longer in production, but I am sure there is a more recent version available.
I added a Garmin 760 LMT stand alone GPS.

Ours has done that before and one thing to keep in mind is you can remove it from the dash unplug all the connectors and then plug them back in. For some reason that works every time. Might not work for you but it's worth a try.

I will assume you have done a hard reset. Little button the front you push with a pen. Hold till something happens.

Tried the hard reset. Think the main board is out.
