stereo dvd head unit
I have a 2017 Reflection travel trailer. The head unit (stereo/dvd) has no power. Standby is not lit up. Checked
fuse in panel and it's fine. Any suggestions on why no power?

Do you have 12V power otherwise? Lights etc.?

Probably not a fuse.
Rule 1 in finding problems is to to look at the last thing you messed with. That was the 12V system, so I’d want to measure 12V power as close as possible to the stereo. These things aren’t great quality. There is often a reset button someplace. A small hole in the faceplate.John & Kathy

I did the exact same thing a couple of months ago. My eyes dont see in the dark as well as they used to and i didnt use a flashlight. Our stereo was also without power exactly as you describe.
I pulled the bottom cover off ( furrion i believe was brand ) it covers the screw holes and is only around all the buttons on the bottom half of the unit, it snaps on so pry gently, I used my fingers only and it came off.
I pulled all four screws and slid the head unit out and on the back left ( looking from the front ) there was a standard automotive fuse red, 10 amps and it was blown. I swapped that out, caveat is that i have not hooked up the batter to test to see if that fixed the stereo yet but am hopeful it will work now.
Its a quick thing to try, cheap, and it might fix your problem.
Of note when I crossed my cables I also blew a fuse in the panel and believe I have blown two more on my converter charger but i have to pull the false wall in the storage to check for those and havent done this yet. We cant use it right now and its stored remotely making fixes like these a little more complicated.
Hope this helps you and would be awesome if it fixes it for you cause there will be hope for mine too.
