    Furrion DV7200S No TV SOund

    Just took our frist trip with a brand new Imagine 2500RL. I have tried everything to get sound from our TCL Roku TV through the Furrion, no love. There is no capability in the Furrion to accept HDMI ARC. The only solution I could think of was to go from the headphone port on the back of the TV to the audio in jacks on the back of the Furrion. All I get is hum. I have 3.5 mm to RCA cords thast I know work fine. I have tried headphones in the headphone port on the TV and that works. I am left with the ports on the back of the Furrion being bad. Anyone else try this???

    Thanks

    First off @simpsongb, this looks like your first post, welcome to the forum. While I don't have that stereo, the manual (https://cdn.accentuate.io/1906119376...200_IM_WEB.pdf) shows an HDMI in port on the front of the unit. Are you saying yours doesn't have that? Does your TCL have an optical out? Some have reported success using the optical out with a converter that allowed them to plug into the audio in jacks.

    Thanks SOundSailor....I tried both HDMI portd..nada. The TCL does hav an optical, but, of course, the Furrion does not. I could try buying an adaptor. I may look at just buying a better unit than the FUrrion.....the hum makes me think it may be defective. Perpahs I should report that to my dealer or directly to GD??

    If you suspect a defective unit, I would go straight to GD. They're usually really good on warranty items.

    Something like this (https://smile.amazon.com/Converter-M.../dp/B07PWJSJ97) might do the trick.

    We have the same TT, here is what worked for me, posted in another thread

    I had the same issue, the HDMI just doesn't work on the front or the back... the front is a passthrough for whatever that means and yes, the back is HDMI Out...

    Another user pointed me to this cable and it works great
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D5H8KO2...roduct_details

    Plugged it into the Furrion Stereo in the back and got it to work using the AV setting, I then moved the RCA plugs to the other Audio in and it works on HDMI, go figure, I left it alone and buttoned it up, at least it works

    Thanks Toy4Rick
    I have two cables just like the one you linked from Amazon. Both of them, when plugged in, create a bad hum. I know tha cables are fine, because I have used them for years.

    I'm assuming you've plugged the RCA side of the cable into the audio in on the Furrion's rear panel. What happens when you try to plug the other end into your phone? You could have a bad plug on the TCL end.

    I plugged some headphoens into the TCL...worked fine. Pretty used to troubleshooting methodology, isolate, etc. The hum in the Furrion seems to indicate to me that the unit has an issue. As I said, the TCL headphone port works fine with headphones, and I tried two different cables, both of which I have used in the past successfully. So, not the TCL port, not the cables. Leaves the FUrrion as far as I can see. Guess I will give GD a call tomorrow....

    OK, good luck, hope you find a solution. Let us know how it works out.

    BTW, you've probably already tried this but.... The manual shows both an audio in and an AV in. Have you tried both of those?
