Well it ended up being the reset button on the radio. Thank you so much for everyone’s help!

It looked fine.

Puzzled, still I came back later and found that it was on.

It's back on now and I'm not sure if it was a fluke or what. Either way, mine is connected with a backup and turn signal cameras. Any recommended upgrades to replace it?
My radio started doing the same thing. At first I couldn’t turn it on then it wouldn’t turn off. Finally it wouldn’t turn on at all. Tried resetting it to no avail. It was just replaced under warranty.

I couldn’t get my head unit to turn on, after accidentally leaving my coach’s main switch turned on and completely running down the house battery. Thanks to this thread, I was able to use the reset button and get it operational again. I appreciate the shared knowledge.

Axxera radio Question

I agree the radio is terrible, I can't get it to play from my iPod. It's a AMV70 in a 2018 ACE, Thanks in advance for your help!

My Axxera works awesome. Finally figured out the BT code 0000, silly me and now I listen to my Spotify, answer the phone through the unit and watch my rear camera all at once.

Axxera

We , too, are one of the few Axxera owners who have no problems. Our radio serves us well...BT synced to our phones easily and I use tunes from my phone when we are not in radio reception area.
In addition, we have a BT speaker which comes in handy when we are sitting outside or when camped and do not have radio on.

Mine died. Thor gave me a Dual with DVD player as a sub. Much better. Still I have trouble sometimes connecting to iPhone for video. But I think that is more of the dongle fault.

I'm a weirdo. Although I admit my Axxera is not the greatest radio, I've never had any problems with it.

Axxera

Our only issue was a bad power connection to our Axxera. It has worked flawlessly since getting it repaired under warranty.

I had a similar problem. There was a 5 amp fuse that was hidden behind the breaker center as an in line fuse. I have a 2017 Chateau. Lift up the corner of the bed to access behind the load break center and look for any in line fuses.

I used a ballpoint pen in the reset hole left bottom on faceplate. The all came back to life. Believe problem happened when house batteries fell to 9.5 volts over the winter.

Has anybody every found the fuse on the back of the Axxera AVM70 or AVM80?

Found the fuse

I found the fuse under the radio's harness if anyone can't find it.

In the link in my signature.
I think it's post #186
Any stereo shop can install it.
Mine was an hour of labor.

Any double din fits.
I picked this one.
No problems.
It does work with iexit.

My Kenwood has a split screen function that allows me to display navigation and rear camera simultaneously. Aside from the fact it beats the Axxera on all counts, this is a great feature. Backup lines are also nice when in reverse.

Model DNX695S. It’s a double DIN so it should fit many RVS.

Had a local shop install, but a DYI install is very doable. Shop did a super job on auxiliary jack to make for an easy phone connection right on the dash.

You might call Crutchfield. We just replaced the radio in our Jeep...and these folks are amazing. I wonder if you called them and told them you have the Axxera model #, etc. … and want to replace it..they might be able to reference it to what they have.
When I ordered the Jeep radio, for an extra $25 they make a wiring harness specific to the radio and the Jeep. My nephew installed it for us...no issues at all !
