Question:
I have the Furrion vision S monitor system on a jayco camper it will work fine with my 2018 Toyota tundra but when I go to use my 2015 gmc Sierra 1500 it pops up a no signal on the monitor also I have bought and tried to use the 7 way adapter

The issue is caused by the wiring of your Silverado not sending enough power for the camera to properly operate. I'm not a fan of the 7-way adapter as it just has a jumper wire running over to the running light circuit, which can cause issues with how the truck reads whether or not a trailer is connected.
Instead I recommend the PWM Filter # VGR64VR, which will splice into the wiring behind the rear camera and provide a constant 12 volts to the camera while the running lights are on in the tow vehicle. Once completed there's no additional steps like the 7-way adapter requires and the trailer will be set for any newer GM or PWM wired vehicles so there should no longer be any hassle involved with connecting to the camera.
