Question Vegas TV

Checking things out today prior to hitting the road next week and found my outside tv will not come on. Both inside tv's work fine. I traced the plug from TV to under the fridge where it plugs in and it was plugged in. Any ideas? Appreciate it, thanks. Stay safe

Check where it plugs into the back of the TV as well.

It's hard wired to the rear of the tv.

Have you tried plugging something else into that plug (a light) to see if it has power?

If you have power at the plug then go TV shopping (you'll end up with a better TV anyway).

I actually had this same problem with my outdoor TV on my Axis 24.1. I discovered that it was the GFCI plug in the bathroom. It was tripped for some reason and a few of the outlets in the coach wouldn't work. When my wife complained that her hair dryer wouldn't work, I reset it and all of the other outlets were reset, as well.

On 24.1 Vegas ithe Outside TV GFI plug is under the cooktop, screwed to the outside wall. It’s actually connected in series to all the GFI outlets, controlled by the bathroom outlet

To access, the outside TV plug...remove the one (or two) drawers under the cooktop.

For me, I’m adding an inverter hardwired to the “outlet” breaker on the “converter” as described on this forum. I’ve ordered the unit & remote from Amazon. Once complete, I’ll be able to watch the two TVs inside without 120 volt power or genny running.

Now, for the outside TV to be hooked up via inverter as well...
> I’ll leave existing GFI outlet as described above as-is
> I’ll create a new GFI stand alone outlet hardwired to the inverter, and locate it right next to current GFI outlet for outside TV. Then I’ll plug outside TV to the new GFI outlet

That way no wiring will be altered, but I’ll still have the outside TV on GFI & now connected to inverter.

Once complete...all three TVs will be available to watch without 120 volt connection or genny running
