With the help of the Foretravel tech folks I was able to locate the "brains" of our electronics switching and thought someone else might use the information.

When the switches in either the Salon or Stateroom are operated to connect a video source to/from a TV, VCR, etc, a signal is sent to a Winegard VS-1000 switching unit located in the after most driver side closet under a false floor. The bad news is the VS-1000 is no longer available.

There are inputs from Cable, Antenna, and VCR on one side and outputs to Set 1, Set 2 and VCR on the other. A control cable is plugged into the lower left side of the unit. On the lower right is what I was looking for, a 1/4A fuse. The primary power is from the 12VDC fuse panel at the foot of the bed.

I hope you never need this info but here it is if you do.

Nice photos! I did find mine but neglected to take a good shot like yours. I have another switch just behind the driver's seat up on the cabinet on my 93 U300. It has several coaxes coming into it, and have traced one to the bat antenna. The guy that did the tv coax runs/amp installation was not the same person that did the dash wiring. Not the easiest thing to do to inject a signal at one end and find out where the other end is, especially since there have been so many modifications by owners and components are hidden. How much time would it have taken the factory to include a diagram for the whole coach? Thanks again for the nice photos and post.
