'12 Raptor 395LEV Speaker Issues
Good morning all.
I'm new here, first post. Have not been in the RV arena since the '80s, so things have changed... A LOT!
I'm soon to retire, end of the year and we want to travel and see the last 10 states on my wife's list. We bought a used '12 RAM 3500 CC DRW diesel and a month ago just purchased a new to us '12 Keystone Raptor 395LEV late production titled as a '13.
So I got it home Saturday and have it in my cul de sac driveway, not an easy chore by the way. Have 50 amp power hooked up from my garage 50 amp welder service outlet. After I changed out the 3-prong plugs to the 4-prong RV 50 amp connectors.
Now to my issues with the speakers.
I noticed that the sub-woofer is not working and the outside speakers were not working.
I checked the speakers and they seem to be good, but no signal. I was messing around with my test meter and popped a main fuse for the Sony amp on the main panel. As soon as that popped, I could hear something outside; it was the outside speakers. I had the rocker switch turned on to the outside speakers when I popped the fuse.
So I went out and sure enough they were on. Not the best sound, but they were working. I can eliminate them as a fault. But as soon as I turned the rocker switch off and back on, no outside speakers again.
I replaced the main 30 amp DC fuse in the panel and the Sony 700w amp powered back up, but still no sub-woofer with the rocker switch turned on.
It does not look like anyone has messed with the wiring or is there any loose wires etc.
Anyone have such a problem? Or know how to trouble shoot this?
I went into the Sony head unit to see if there was a setting to turn off the sub, but other than the crossover screen, I have to assume that if the rocker switch is on, the sub should be on as well.
I also know that the rocker switch for the outside speakers works as they turned off with the switch and they DID work for a short period of time.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
I'm sure I'll have lots more questions after I get to use it the first time.
Thanks in advance and have a great week!
Dan
