Just bought a 2000 Sundowner 8012, thank-you for everybodies help. The radio does not work and I am trying to figure the difference between the 12V "ignition" wire which has a charge (not from truck) and the 12 V battery charge which does not have a charge. I cross wired the ignition wire with the battery wire on the radio and the clock came on, but nothing else

Thanks blackcows, I tried to figure out where the wires went to, but they are behind the wall. There are two wires going to the "ignition" one and then the other "battery" one there is just a thick blue wire.
I could combine all three wires, but I was wondering what the 12V ignition wire was for or from.

So if I put it all together. The ignition wire, if it were in a vehicle, would be the main power to run the radio when the ignition was on. The battery power would probably be the memory power to keep the clock going. I will have to figure out why there is no power to the battery wire, though can't figure out yet where all the wires are behind the wall
