Have 2 unrelated(?) problems that showed up after battery change.

1. Monitor panel has no reading--I mean just the led's dont read. Everything else seems functional. They couldn't be on a separate fuse, could they? If so, what fuse/circuit breaker would it be? The literature is no help.
2. Rear Sony camera/monitor set up does not work. Chassis fuses don't list it. Owners manual says "see separate Sony manual" which I don't have. If that fuse is bad, where is it? Is there an inline fuse? I didn't see one. This was a replacement camera set up, but is the same model as factory.

Thanks for your input before I have to take it to the shop.

I have the same model and year as you do.

Check your aux power switch just as you come inside the door on your left. It may be off. If so, the monitor panel will not work. Just switch it to the on position.

As far as the monitor is concerned, mine has one attached to the back of the monitor itself and mine also is a replacement unit. I'm not an electrician so I can't be of much help there, but the monitor panel is a pretty easy fix.

Based on the wiring diagrams for your coach (Table of Contents), Power to the Rear Monitor (Circuits TR and KE; pdf page 6; Location D11 of http://www.winnebagoind.com/diagram/...ire_144984.pdf) comes from the IP Convenience Center (pdf page 5; location D2). Circuit KE is main power to the monitor when ignition switch is ON. Circuit TR is used to force camara A as the source when the transmission selector is placed in reverse. Circuit MG is ground.

Based on pdf page 2 of http://www.winnebagoind.com/diagram/...ire_144981.pdf, the IP Convenience Center is located under the dash against the forward bulkhead (ref BF-BF which is blown up on pdf page 3). It is not the fuse panel under the lift up dash pod.

Thanks guys. It turned out to be an inline fuse hidden behind some other wiring. The led problem has me stumped though. I hate to take the panel off the wall because I can't believe there would be a fuse just for those few led's and I have a feeling there will be a maze of wires back there. The power switch was on, and everything else on the panel works.

I'm not sure if your monitor panel is the same as the Powerline EMS panel in our Vectra but it went off and on then stayed off. It turned out that the wire to it was so tight tension form others in the bundle pulled it from the back. A little slack and sticking it back on fixed it.
