Troubleshooting Signal Strength Issues With A Furrion Vision S RV Backup Camera System
Question:
I have the furrion vision s. When plugged in I get it working. When I attach it to the trailer I get no signal. But I am getting a blue light indicator showing that I am getting power. What else could I be looking for

You can be getting enough power for the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System # FOS43TASF to power on but not enough for it to properly operate if your tow vehicle has PWM wiring. There are two solutions to this issue:
Option 1: By using the 7-Way Vehicle Power Adapter w/ Power Switch for Furrion RV Observation Camera # FR87PR. This adapter will send a steady current to the camera allowing you to receive a signal to your monitor. The male end will plug into the 7-way on your 2019 Chevy Silverado and you'll plug your trailer into the female end of this adapter.
Option 2: By using the 12V PWM Filter for RV Backup Camera Systems # VGR64VR. This is a permanent fix that will just splice in-line right behind the camera and send a steady current to the camera to fixed the signal issues.
Of the two choices I personally recommend the # VGR64VR just because it's so easy to do and when it's done you don't have to do anything else. The # FR87PR would be one additional thing you'd have to do every time you want to tow your trailer.
