Is the RADIO on?

[JEG]

Just purchased an '06 Mountain Aire and we love it. We have been getting familiar with everything and have a question. When we turn the radio/nav system off using the source button the music goes off but some of the lights stay on and we can hear a humming sound as if it is still on. The last mh we owned had a power switch below the radio to turn power off but we can't find a similar switch and there is no mention of a switch in any of the manuels. The installation manuel for the pioneer system indicates that it would normally be connected to the ignition switch but that is not usually the case in a mh. If anybody can straighten us out we would appreciate it. Thanks

On ours push the button once turns off radio, etc.
Push and hold powers down system.

Does all of the lights on the radio go off.

Push switch once radio etc. goes off, lights and clock stay on. Push and hold: all lights and clock go out. Ours is powered from house batts.

According to the manual the radio should be wired to the ignition switch but most mh's that I've seen aren't. My last coach a toggle switch under the radio to kill power but this coach doesn't that I can find.

Instruction manual? We've only been working on this for a week. Surley no need to get excited at this stage and start reading books and making stupid phone calls. Sombody knows the answer and will splain it to us soon.

Ours has a 3-way little black rocker switch on the dash. Left is radio, center is off, right is TV.
When we select TV and tune the radio to 89.1 the TV sound plays also thru the stero speakers. Good luck.
