The Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera Systems; part # FOS43TASF for 4.3" screen or part # FOS05TASF for 5" screen, are going to be powered by either the running or backup light circuit. If you don't have the running or backup lights activated, then this would indicate why you don't have power to the camera. If the running or backup lights are activated and you still don't have power then there may be a problem which could be caused by a blown fuse on the tow vehicle, wire short between the light/camera and trailer connector, and or a bad connection to the tow vehicle.

@Ashley Have you verified how the camera is supposed to get power? Typically you'll have to place the tow vehicle in reverse, but sometimes the camera is tied to the running light function so it will ger power when the headlights are on. If you've tried both of those then there aren't any fuses on the camera or monitor directly, but what Conner was saying is that some people might have a fuse on the circuit for that product so you'll have to trace the power wire for your camera and see if there is a fuse on it somewhere. Basically look for any fail points on the power circuit and see where the camera loses power so you know what to fix. You can start by unplugging the trailer wiring from the tow vehicle and then use a tester like part # PK12741 to see if the problem is on your tow vehicle or the trailer side of things.
