2016 Bay Star

Brother-in-law went to hook up tv to the cable in our RV park. The picture was terrible! After spending time checking connections and the park cable, determined that the problem existed in the coach. Anyone know where we can find a diagram to locate where the A/V splitter is.

Thanks

Coach is a 2016 Baystar
Model 3403
Ford chassis

Don't know where it is. Is that the 12 volt outlet with a switch and a light located on passenger side?

Splitter is in compartment behind front tv. You have to pry the louvered cover off (held with silicone on 3 sides).

I actually took a hole saw and drilled a huge hole between this compartment and the AV cabinet above the driver's side and relocated the splitter there, because if you go to a CG where you need a cable box, you can plug the box into the splitter so you can watch on all tv's in the coach (albeit the same channel)

We did. We turned off the OTA booster and it helped.

All the coaches I have owned had a box that you had to toggle between cable ota and sat.

Thanks for the answers

My 2015 works on cable if the antenna issue off. Unless you have a power antenna batwing style, then you might need it on

My 2016 Bay Star Sport has the selection box you speak of. In my model it is located in a cabinet above the driver's compartment sitting on top of the DVD player.
