Troubleshooting Power Issues To A Furrion RV Backup Camera System
Question:
Does my 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 need a power adapter for the 7 way? I know the newer trucks have a power interrupter but I cannot find anything on 2016. I bought a née camper and a furrion s7 camera and no power

Yes, if you're experiencing signal or power issues with your Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System w/ Night Vision # FOS43TASF in your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 then I recommend installing the 7-Way Vehicle Power Adapter w/ Power Switch for Furrion RV Observation Camera # FR87PR between your 7-way and trailer wire to boost the power running to your camera system.
There's also a permanent solution with the PWM Filter # VGR64VR, which splices in behind the camera and provides a steady current for the camera.
Also, depending on the way it was wired the camera will only have power running to when you're either in reverse or when your headlights are turned on if it was wired to the running lights.
