2021 Reflection 28BH no power to camera prewire

[Stanleyfink2000]

Does anyone know where the power comes from on a 2021 Reflection 28BH for the furrion prewire. It has no power with lights on, in reverse, battery disconnect on etc. I’m thinking I need to trace it but not sure where to start. Has anyone else run into this?

Have you verified with a meter there is no power or just tried a camera? Color codes may not be what most people are used to and reversed wiring is common.

As John mentioned it could be wired wrong. It should be to the clearance light power so on when TV lights are on. It could be the plug came loose too. Just unscrew the camera mount from the trailer and slowly pull the wires out, then use a multi meter to check what it what.

Hope this helps

Thanks guys. I never thought about reverse polarity. Found where it was connected on the far right clearance light. Swapped the wires and it works now. 👍

I was in hopes that my unit would be plug & play but no luck. I found the issue in the far right clearance light, the same as Stanleyfink2000. Firstly, I found one of the camera wires was not connected to the quick connects within the cavity. I connected the wire and still had no power to the camera. I secondly reversed the wiring, as indicated by previous posts that reverse polarity could be an issue, and that resolved it. I put everything back together and tested it prior to applying fresh silicone. All is working well now.

You found those wago connectors in the wall behind the light? Or add them yourself?

They were behind the light.

Welcome to the forum! It's probably too late, but if you still have the marker lights off, consider putting some sealant on the screws before reinstalling them. You could also put some sealant in the wiring exit hole for additional protection. This is certainly not an original idea of mine, just part of the wealth of information shared by others here.

Fortunately, I’ve been in Construction/Construction Management for more than 30 years. I most definitely applied silicone to the screws, as well as applying a bead along the top and sides of each component, only leaving the bottom silicone free to allow for weeping should any moisture find it’s way in.
