Removed the old 200lb. tv Disconnected the three wires from side of tv. Now no power to stereo. How do I connect to new tv to get power?

No

Radio is 12 VDC, and most TV's are 120 V AC

Mine has a switch on the dash marked TV/Radio I think its so the TV sound goes to the radio speakers. Do you have this switch? Or does the radio work but your not getting any sound? could be speaker wires.

Normally the TV gets power from a relay controlled outlt (Ignition cut out)
Radio from a non controlled outlet

Both may share a breaker

i'm guessing you unplugged the radio while moving the TV about.. But you might have tripped the breaker or in some rigs a GFCI.
Home was where I park it. but alas the.

Power to TV and radio should be separate. I'd check to make sure a wire to the radio didn't get accidentally disconnected. Alternately, if the TV and radio share a ground, removing the TV ground could prevent the radio from working. Try regrounding the radio or reconnect the TV ground to the chassis.

When you say no power to radio, do you mean no TV audio signal to radio?

Kinda hard to understand your question!
