Troubleshooting A Furrion DV1200 RV Stereo System That Won't Power On
Question:
Hey everyone, I was able to turn on the tv, fireplace however the Furrion dv1200 has no power. I turned off all the breakers and turned them back on. However that still doesn’t turn on. What can I check? How can I take it out to check connections since it seems like it’s glued inside the cabinet. I tried it on all sources, currently sits on AV. Thank you for any insight

Most likely the stereo is fried since there isn't a fuse in this one like most other stereo systems. What you can do though is pull off the trim around it to get to the mounting screws and remove it from the cabinet. If you have done this and really is glued to the cabinet as well then you'll need to take a pry tool to it and get it off.
Once it's off you can use a multimeter # PT89ZR and prick into the power wires to see if it's getting 12 volts. If not then we know the issue is with the power source. If it is getting power then we know the issue is with the stereo. In your case since everything else is working it's most likely replacement time.
If you do need to replace it then I recommend the Furrion RV Stereo # DV1230BL. This stereo is a bit smaller so you'll need to make alterations for it to completely cover the cutout hole. Typically I cut down a thin piece of plywood to cover the entire hole and cut out a smaller hole in the center of the board to fit the new stereo. I usually paint the board black but you can also stain it to match your cabinet if your wanted to.
