Is there an A-B-C selector on the radio. A I's inside for me and C is outside. Haven't figured out B yet.

There should be some kind of selector on your "stock" receiver. Since Keystone uses several different units in their coaches, it's not possible to tell you exactly how to operate whatever one you have. Check the manual for the radio to be sure.

If that isn't the problem, it's possible that the connector on the back of the radio has come loose. Pull the radio from the cabinet and check all connections.

Yes there is an abc option. I have all the speakers hooked up properly (I think) the only way I get any sound out of the speakers is if I touch the ground wire to the speaker to the body of the receiver. Even at that I only get a quick crackle noise. I notice there is some sort of ground wire coming out of the panel along with the speaker wires. Not sure if I need to ground that wire and where if so ?

The aBc buttons act as an on off switch. If the A is lit on the display then the radio should be working On The inside speakers

On my Cougar "A" is for living area "B" is for bedroom and "C" is for outside. The extra wire you refer to most likely is the AM/FM antenna if you don't have an external one. Try using a CD as you may not have a radio signal. Turn "A and B" on and off to see if you have sound. JM2¢, Hank

To add to the confusion; my 2010 Springdale 291 works thusly; A: speakers nearest TV (front) living area. B: speakers nearest galley (rear) of living area. C: outside speakers (which are usually louder than A and/or B)

Mine was working fine, but one day while dry camping in Durango CO and enjoying some outside music (using the switch on the panel) My inside crapped out...After pulling apart the panel...and much frustration..I noticed a red LED through the circuit breaker door (indicating a popped 12V fuse.)..Put in another 15amp fuse (i think it was a 15A)..and BAM ... MUSIC.... Must control the splitter or bridged amp or something..
Hope this helps..

Another item to check is the balance and fade. In my 301BQ it is activated/controled by pushing in the volume knob. This past weekend I only had sound from one speaker and thought I had issues. Eventually I was able to figure out the issue was with the balance and fade settings
