1.0. Wiring Follow the wiring diagram above
•
The red wire is the power wire. It recommended that this wire is connected to an on/off switch for purposes of
lowering the current draw on the battery while the radio is not in use.
•
Red ACC wire must be connected to 12V+ for the radio to turn on.
•
Note: the PRV175 has EPROM, which means the radio loses power, it will still retain the presets.
•
Ground (black) must be connected to a good 12V- source. Best source is directly to the battery.
•
Speaker wires must be installed to the individual speaker’s terminals as labeled, positive and negative, respectively.
Do NOT combine any speaker wires as this will cause permanent damage to the radio’s output IC. Tape off any unused
speaker wires individually to prevent accidental shorting which can also harm the output IC.
•
Antenna must be installed.

3.0. List of common issues
3.1 No Power
Check each button on the control pad for sticking. Under normal conditions, a faint click is heard upon pressing each
button. If any button does not click, initiate a warranty claim.
Ensure red wire is connected to a good 12V+ source.
Ensure black ground wire is connected to a good reliable ground source.
Open the fuse holder and check the fuse. Note, while in most situations, a bad fuse can be spotted visually, this may
not always be the case. The best method would be to use a multi-meter or a test light.
Ensure the battery/power supply is putting out at least 12V while under load. The radio requires at least 11V to
operate normally.
Check all connections for corrosion, looseness, or other condition that can produce a bad ground. Corrosion or
terminal looseness is the leading cause for most grounding issues and can cause excessive heat resulting in melting
wires or terminals.
If possible, connect the radio power directly to a 12V system, bypassing any toggle switches. If radio works
connected directly to power, the problem might be with the toggle switch.
If nothing helps, initiate a warranty claim if you are within warranty
