Ok me being new to RV ownership I need some help please

The person I bought the HM from had the TV replaced with flat screen he told me today he never used any thing but tv speakers. So I am wondering what if any thing do I need to do to have sound through MH speakers
The man I bought it from said new tv was wired up the same as old one

Getting TV sound thru the MH speakers is doable but you need to do some investigation on the wiring. Where do the speaker wires terminate? At the TV location or perhaps in the AV Home theater cabinet? Once you find out where the speaker wires end you can either wire directly to the TV if it has external speaker outputs, or run the speakers thru the Home Theater stereo using it's amplifier. You might post that question on the Monaco owners forum, I'm sure someone else has that model and can offer guidance.

We just did this our nephew purchased a radio shack "component video distribution amplifier"
(Part 15-311). Installed it in audio visual cabinet. Ran audio cable down along the driver post, thru dash to back of our Sony radio. Then installed the a/v cable from amp to back of DirecTV receiver. The amplifier does require as 110 power source. We just added a bus bar up there to accommodate all the plug in up there. The speakers were controlled by the radio. We can choose to use them/or not. It ain't surround sound however it certainly makes Ron happy on race day��

When we installed our flat screen we were going to use the coach speakers.
But then we realized trying to do that and still run the radio and CD throughout the coach and the TV just front and a different TV in back we decided....well no.
Used a sound bar mounted under the cabinet on the front and sound bar over TV in the back.

My 2002 diplomat came with a sony surround sound / DVD in the cabinet to the left of the front tv. You can feed the audio out from the tv to the surround sound.

Thank you for all of your help
looks like I need to do some investigation
I did pull out tv and saw two wires plugged in to audio out put they go to left and look like they go down driver side column.
where would they plug in in dash? (is it in back of radio?) if so is there a setting on radio that turns it on or do I need radio set on a set station?

On ours we push the CD/MD button twice

On our Cayman, there is a switch inside the A/V cabinet right above the entryway steps that is marked "Speakers" and it has 2 positions - "TV" and "Radio". Make sure you have the switch in the proper position to listen to the radio or TV through the ceiling speakers.
