Blown Fuse
The rear panel of the receiver includes a fast-blow
fuse rated for 8 amps. If this fuse has blown, the
system will not operate.
Unscrew the cap and replace
the fuse. If you replace the
fuse, but it blows again,
check the receiver to ensure
that it is clear of debris and
the connectors are tight. Do
not replace the fuse with a
larger amperage fuse.
Insufficient Power
With the vehicle powered up and the receiver turned
on, power at the receiver must measure at least
10 VDC for the TracVision system to work properly.
Check the receiver’s power connection and ensure
that it is wired to a dedicated circuit. If other devices
are wired to the same circuit, these additional loads
might drain power away from the receiver.
