Radio problems

I have a 2014 ACE with a second generation Jensen radio/gps. It worked on my first trip home. The RV has been sitting in the driveway for a month or so. The radio didn’t work when I took the RV out today. It works on 110 volt, and on generator.

I have tried the rest button with no effect. Not sure if I have to open the dash to check for loose wire connection from the ignition or if I’m doing something wrong.

Put your USE/STORE switch in USE to connect your batteries to the DC buss. But if they haven't been connected while on SP or generator they are probably dead and need to be charged in order for the USE/STORE solenoid to function.

Newbie report this was the fix. I didn't even think of that switch.

All is good until the next issue.

Wheel alignment and rotation tomorrow, and first trip Thursday.

Woohoo

Battery Disconnect USE/STORE switch. First thing I turn on (USE), last thing I turn off (STORE), every trip. Even if it's just to the gas station.
