New2Me 2008 350 - Salon TV - Dummy "Turn On" Question

[saltydogz]

We moved up to a 350 this past winter (bought then straight to winterized) and finally got her splashed a couple of weeks ago again after a cold winter. As we been going through and learning the new systems I have a question on the salon TV.

How do you turn it on? I have turn the breaker on the says TV, but it does not come on when I hit the power button. There is no power indicator light on either on the front of the TV. What am I missing? Also, how do you get the TV off the wall to see the back? The owner's manual was not much help. Do I need to do something with the "DC to AC power inverter" it talks about that provides power to the TV's...

It work during the survey back in the fall and that was the last time we had it on.

Thanks and here's to a great boat season for everyone.

Did you turn on all the breakers? The TV one could just be for the antenna amplifier. Also your tv is probably 110V, so make sure that you turn on all ac and dc breakers at try. My tv’s are linked to their location breaker. For instance, I have to turn on the galley systems breaker to turn on that TV

Thanks, SuperWa...
Yes, double check everything. Found out that the outlets on the starboard side were not working as well. Finally traced it to the GFI outlet under the grill area in the cockpit was tripped. Reset it and the TV now works and as well as the outlets.

Wiring on a boat sometimes does not make sense.
