Title: What the Heck!

I need some help with this one. I have a Four Winds 34g. When I shut off the disconnect switch next to the steps, and turn it back on, the exterior radio turns itself on. I have been turning the disconect switch off for years and never experienced this issue. This has just started the past month or so. Any ideas on where to start looking as to why the outside entertainment radio turns itself on when powering up the RV after turning the disconnect switch back on.

I have not made any modifications to the electrical or radio system.

It's probably a Jensen. Which could be the reason it has started turning on from a voltage surge caused by the disconnect switch be turned on. I would start by checking grounds. Then check for loose connection at the disconnect switch/relay.

It is a Jensen, and I didn't add that the radio is not powered when I shut the disconnect off.
I'll try and follow the wiring. I assume I will have to pull the unit to see where the wiring harness runs.

I would be looking at wiring for the disconnect switch/relay.

Thanks, I'll start at the switch end first before looking at the radio end.
