So, I feel stupid asking this question. Im new to this whole RV thing. I purchased a 2012 Hurricane 31g model. For the life of me I cant figure how to turn the TV on. I pushed the power button on the TV; nothing. I have both the chassis and coach batteries on; nothing. I then figured what the hell, I'll turn on the generator. Well the TV finally turned on. Does the generator have to be on to work the TV?
No. The generator does not HAVE to be on, but you do need to have AC power. That means that you must either be plugged into an AC power source like the hookups at an RV park, OR have your generator running. Some newer flat screen LCD TV's, especially those specifically made for RV's, will run off DC power but yours apparently wont.
That pretty much answers that question! Thank you, now I don't feel so much like a dunce!
