Cool Video cuts out when heater turns on.

I have now seen that when we are watching video on DVD, and the heater clicks on, the video drops out off the screen. It does eventually come back on after a few seconds. This only happens when heater comes on. Any ideas?

Welcome to the forum.

You don't say what kind of RV you have or furnace or if you are plugged into shore power, but if it was my problem I'd check into a low voltage issue.

X2 for low voltage. If you are plugged in you should have lots of amps for the furnace blower to start. Similar if your batteries are above the 50% level.
In the fifty years of RV-ing the chassis ground is a big culprit in the electrical system.
The mfg. just install a dry ground not a lubricated and cleaned ground.

Thank you for the input.
I knew it would have to be something to do with power.
I was plugged into shore power in 30 Amps.
My onboard battery is basically way undercharged and will have to look into that as well.
I have a 2016 Jayco Jay flight 26RBS.
Not sure of the heater manuf.
I'll have to pursue the power usage no doubt.
