2018 LSV Stereo Not Powering Up

[ajive]

On hour 8 and my first gremlin popped up.  Speakers stopped working but all screens were nominal.  I cycled the power and battery and now the 7" just sits on the "please wait, Stereo powering up" dialog box.

Any experience with this or troubleshooting tips?

Is the amp getting power? Solid blue light in the Malibu logo or is it flashing red?

Is the rest of the functions working on the 7” screen?

No power to the amps (no lights).  Screen is working otherwise.

I’d start with checking the connection at the amps and the 7” screen. 

If it’s not that then it will probably need to be inspected by the dealer.

Turned out the main power wire wasn't stripped far enough and came out of one of the amps.  Easy fix and wont recur, but pretty serious fire hazard!  Glad the rest of the day was good (and super quiet) and it was an easy fix.  Thanks for the help!

Good to hear it was nothing major!

Having the same issue. Was a fuse or did you need to reconnect a wire?

It was a wire.  Coming from the hatch in the bow I found a red power wire from the front most amp that was just hanging out.  If you find the same thing be careful if the power is on, I got some sparking... So probably kill the battery switch before investigation!
