IRV 31 issues mini lite 2109s
Just noticed on our last trip our speakers over the couch are no longer working. Speakers over bed do.
I pulled the unit out and everything looked connected.
Trailer is 14 months old and used quite often.
Aside from knowing the IRV's are a POS.
Any ideas before I haul it to the dealer.
We have the 2nd year warranty.

Had a similar problem with some of my Mini Lite speakers. Lousy connections at the speakers.
Have to pull the covers off (a trick in itself) then unscrew speaker from ceiling, then re-splice the wires.

Sounds like they ran the wires wrong.

That's what I thought but the balance was ok before. I'll have plenty of time next week to troubleshoot while at the beach.

I had the same issue with my 2013 2109S. The connection to the speakers was a joke.

Would be interesting if both speaker wire connections failed at same time.
Going to try and pull unit out first and swap plugs from over bed to over couch first.
That would rule out or confirm a radio issue.

Ok all fixed. I pulled the media center out and found a wire pulled out of splice. What's strange they set up the L/R balance from two speakers over bed to the two speakers over couch. Right balance plays over bed left balance Speakers over couch play. Retired from the aerospace industry if we installed wiring in aircraft like What's installed in campers we would have airplanes hitting the ground everywhere.

I replaced the tiny tweeters from the factory with these better quality larger speakers and soldered the connections instead. I couldn’t believe the difference in sound, even from the IRV 34. Took me a week to get all the styrofoam vacuumed from every crack and crevice but well worth it.

Yeah, sounds wired wrong. Left/Right should be left and right in the trailer. Speakers #1, 2, and 3 should be the 2 speakers over the couch, the 2 speakers over the dinette, and the 2 speakers outside.
Also, be aware that when you power it on, ALL the speakers come on. So if you had previously turned the outside speakers off (like to watch movie at night), they will come back on when you power on the unit again (like in the morning when you want to listen to the radio with your coffee).

Just went and checked my 2018 2109S. It has an IRV 32 radio. Left Balance goes to the two speakers over the bed. Right balance goes to the two speakers over the couch. I did not see a Fade adjustment, so we cannot go Front/Rear. Also, I can turn Zone 2 on (outside) and power down radio. Power radio back on and it defaults to Zone 1 only. Zone 3 is on the radio but is not connected to anything.

FWIW, I just looked in the IRV32 manual and the wires are in the back for Zone 3 if someone had a use for it... maybe wire it to a phone jack and use a headset as to not bother someone sleeping??
Also, it shows subwoofer wires for Zone 1.
