TV not picking up channels

My bedroom TV was working but not the living room. Then both TV's would not pick up any channels. I have checked all the connections and they are tight. Has anyone else had this happen. We were on pretty rough roads in Eastern Canada when this took place.

Vic, it would help if you told us the model and year of your Montana. It could be as simple as the antenna booster cable coming loose or it could be a lot more to investigate. Help us out here and give us the year and model of your Monte.

Rondo - it is a 2018 305RL (read from his profile) so it does not have KeyTV.

Vic - there is a antenna booster switch on the power outlet behind the bedroom TV. The switch should be pressed and then green LED light should be on for over the air TV reception for both of your TVs. If you are in a park with cable TV, the green LED should be OFF, and you will still need to go into the TV menu for each set and run the channel scan.

If you think the issue is with the TVs - go to Walmart and buy a cheap digital antenna (they are $10-$15 in the US) and hook the Walmart antenna to each TV and run scan. If the units pick up any channels - then the problem is in your internal cable wiring or the splitters.

It is a 2018 305RL Montana High Country
I have tried all your suggestions except the antenna on each TV that I will try shortly.
