356qb Outdoor speakers not working

These speakers previously worked. They are zone c on my unit. Zones a & b work but not c, the outdoor speakers.

Brand new unit, haven't even camped in it yet. It has already been back to the dealer once.

I have pulled the head unit out of the cabinet and checked all speaker wires, all appear to be good connections. When zone c is selected, the outdoor speakers light up blue like the did before, but there is no sound. Fuse is good in the head unit too. Tried radio and DVD surround and they work on all zones except c, my outdoor speakers.

Any thing else I should check? Thoughts?

If you can switch speakers in back of head unit you can determine if it's the speaker or unit. I have a 2016 hemisphere that had to have a new head unit. Also a new ac, awning gas strut, fridge motor and a few other odds and ends done and it's only 6 months old

My 2015 312qbud had the same problem. The head unit was broken. I moved channel c over to channel b and channel b over to a so I could at least have outdoor sound without indoor.

Our dealership had to replace the radio unit in the camper for the same reason.

My outdoor speakers seem to be getting quieter. Maybe the same issue with mine.

My B speakers quit working had to have head unit replaced, worked fine for 2 weeks and B speakers quit working again. I'm very lucky though I have a dealership a few miles from campsite and there very good about doing warranty work at my campground. Shout out to RV Wholesalers in lakeview Ohio.
