2016 Force 37BHHD Radio Problem

Has anyone had problems with the Sony radio. We have had our unit for about 3 weeks now and had not had any problems. Returned home from a weekend trip and the next morning when I tried to turn on the radio it is dead (nothing at all happening, has not power). If anyone has any advise please let me know thanks.

Sounds like a fuse, I changed the head unit but did blow the radio fuse when I added a power outlet to the dash. The fuses are in the second storage unit back on drivers side. I changed all of the fuses in the rv to smart fuses, they light up a small led when they blow. Makes life a lot simpler.

Is the "coach disconnect" button pressed? Mine won't switch on until I reconnect the house batteries

I didn't know about smart fuses. Good idea.

The panel on the side of the bed is the worst to see which one is blown, with smart fuses it is super easy.

Thanks for the responses. I agree with these smart fuses I am going to try and find them also. Problem fixed, removed the radio panel and located a very small reset button. Replaced radio panel and it came on.
