removing overhead tv in Simba

[unclebuckr]

We are trying to remove the broken overhead tv in our 2008 Simba by Monaco. I have removed the 4 obvious screws but the frame won't budge. Any suggestions?

Are you talking about the front frame around the screen? Usually that type frame is held with four to six screws, each behind a wooden plug. If you're sure you've removed all screws, the frame might be stuck. Try sliding a thin knife between frame and cabinet front being careful not to scratch.

Some of the front frame also have screws coming in from the back. On mine there are two screws below the TV. I have to remove the back vent cover and then use a long screw driver to get to the screws.

If your TV is one of the CRT (picture tube) types there are four screws under the TV cabinet that have to be removed also.

Yes, I just went through that removal this past Sunday. I had 3 screws going through the bottom base (inside the box) into the outside frame. Just remove the rear vent, look in with a flash light and you will see them. On mine I had to use a 8in blade #2 Phillips to get them out. After that I had to use a razor knife to remove wood putty from the seams where the frame mounts to the cabinet. Hope this helps you out.
