are you looking for the one like with the Javelina? Those are not easy to find and just easier to replace .. I installed double din and skipped the monitor .. I have my compass working and state of charge but no tank levels.. dont use much after the SeeLevel install

David,

Yep, I'm barking up an outdated tree, I know. Turns out the Audit is fine, just the fold-out dash monitor has died. Tine to call Tim at RV Cams, huh. Though if an old Necvox DA-7192 were available, that is tempting and be good for nostalgia.

Jim,
MOT installed a Clarion VZ401 motorized unit in our coach about 5 years ago. Has worked well, displays Audit info, BU camera and etc..
I haven't figured out how to make the original in dash radio work with this, but have not really tried. We just don't need it.

Amazon.com: Clarion VZ401 7-Inch In-Dash Single-Din Touchscreen DVD/CD/MP3/US... (https://www.amazon.com/Clarion-VZ401-Touchscreen-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B004CYF366)

Dick

Edit: I just noticed that it has been discontinued. Maybe look for a later model?

Hi Dik ,

Thank you for the suggestion. I'm wondering your this monitor has "image reversal"swwitch or was it correct right out of hte box? Seems that is a problem for some units. And was it plug and play with RCA jacks?

I am not sure, as Cliff at FOT did the install. I am pretty sure it is plug and play with the jacks. The video display is reversed.
User/Installation manual attached.
We replaced a Soundstream VIR8310NRB with this Clarion. Installed Soundstream 12/20/11 and replaced it 4/20/12. I cannot find my notes about the problem right now.
Dick

Edit: The motor drive to open the display was sticking.
