2015 Southwind 34A
I recently had the original Jensen stereo/CD player control replaced with a Pioneer AVH-2300NEX. The Jensen had stopped providing any audio and the RV Repair Tech said it was most likely the box so he replaced with the Pioneer. All was well for a total of about 4 hours of use (both CD and radio). Then the screen went blank and the 'AMP Error' message appeared. Now whenever I turn it on everything looks and works fine (except no audio) for about 1 minute - then the screen goes blank and the Amp Error message appears.
Pioneer Tech Sprt thinks it is either a bad speaker or an overloaded amp. I unhooked and inspected all speakers and wiring. All looks fine.
Now I want to find any amplifiers or other units that are in the system. However I have no schematics or equipment location diagrams. I do not want to start blindly tearing out panels and dashboards looking for something that may not be there. I do know there must be some unit in the system because the speaker wires at the speakers are considerably larger than the wires exiting the control box.
The only wires exiting the control box are 1 coax (I assume the antenna) and several very small wires that connect to a single plug. All the A/V receptacles are empty.
I would appreciate any help in my search for a solution. Anyone with a similar vehicle may know where entertainment system units are located and how to get to them without tearing-up the motorhome. Any troubleshooting ideas would also be helpful.
Thanks,
John
