My unit had the Jensen JRV-212 in it. I've never seen an Axxera radio--other than glancing at one in a newer Axis/Vegas unit at a camper show.

The camera plugs in our unit were custom Jensen plugs...

To be a bit clearer than my snarky post above: The "Brake" wire on the radio is designed to prevent you from operating some functions without the parking brake engaged (like watching a video). Its a...

I figured it had to be hooked to ground because I had it hooked to 12V and the radio wouldn't let stuff work, so I grounded the wire and then it worked.

You know: try it.

LOL that was me: Thor had put in a smaller fuse in its fuse panel than the fuse on the back of the radio. I did replace it with a larger fuse (I think one that matched the rating on the back of the...

I don't think I did; don't think I even put the coach in "store" mode as I needed the lights.

I hooked the yellow wire to switched: The only setting the yellow wire retains in the 215 is the clock and since it has a GPS the clock syncs up pretty quickly on powerup. Thus, in my camper, when...

In my case the plug to the 212 was different from the plug to the 215 so I just cut off the 212 plug and wired in the 215 plug. It was pretty straightforward matching colors to the diagrams in each...

It is possible that it is easier/cheaper to warranty a 212 with a 215 than it is to ship the Axxerra--perhaps there are too many design changes to get the Axxerra to fit where the 212 was.

FM/AM: Yes it was the same plug as the 212; I just unplugged it and plugged it into the 215.

I don't think so: You should be able to plug the iPod's USB cable right into the front USB connector on the 215.
