Both of my covers have just one coax connector. One cover is labled Cable/Satellite and the other is unlabled. How does this application apply?

Not sure where you are looking. You will have to be more specific.

Hi

There’s the proof. Our trailer isn’t wired like either one of those drawings!!!

Phil, you're not alone, ours is slightly different also and even more different since I have made mods to the system to allow sat sig to the LR HD DVR and the BR HD Rcvr and the ability by selecting the proper input on the TVs to switch between Cable for Local News & Weather and back to Sat for our normal programs.

Someone sent them to me and I just posted them. I would contact the service center and see if they have one. If they do and it is sent to me I will post it also.

Appreciate all the input on wiring diagrams. Neither diagram looks like my 03, taking unit to local RV repair shop to see if they can figure it out.

We have never been able to get our cable TV working. Many people have looked at our cable situation without results. I think it is time our dealer, or Keystone step up. I do not understand what is going on with this cable thing. I'm just not into TV that much, my Kathy is. Now may be the time.

You can buy a cable tester and using the diagrams figure out how your's is different. I borrowed one from a guy who had one. They range in price from cheap to really expensive. I think the one he had was in the $30 range. Folks who are buying older homes and guys that install cable for a living are folks to look to borrow one from.

I found my splitter behind the basement wall towards the back of the camper. While there I did check teh tightness of the connectors and tighened a few that were loose.

I am still under warrenty.. Going to add this to the list of repairs. I don't like to let them fix it, I know I can do better!!!!. Still looking for a source for blueprints. Keystone has to have a source for this.

How did you find the splitter?. Behind what wall? What is the Easyest way to get to it? Did you fix the problem? Thank you soooo much for the lessons learned..... John

These TV coax diagrams are the only drawings anyone has ever been able to get. And you notice they only go up to 2012.

When we bought ours new in 2007 we had an odd electrical problem in the living room. Really strange problem, but a long story. Took it to the dealer and they had trouble figuring out the problem. I asked the service manager if i could get a copy of the schematic diagram for the trailer. He said they did not have one but he would try to get one from Keystone. Next day he told me Keystone said there were none available. They did find and correct the problem afer a full day troubleshooting.

My coax splitter is attached to the overhead behind the plumbing convenience center cover.

Yes, I found that one. Is that the only splitter or is there another one down line. Tommorrow i'm going to switch the lines on the splitter to see if the main tv works off the line from the bedroom tv or the outside one. That should isolate the defect. It may just be the cable.
