Cornerstone Overhead TV for Nav
Well, I'm stumped. In our 2013 Anthem, both Dave and I liked having the navigation displayed on the overhead TV as we rolled down the road. All I had to do was unplug the black box plug in 'thingie' and voila, there it was. So when I went to set up our new ride . . . things are different. So, has anyone with one of these configurations (see pic) been able to crack the code?

On my 2015 Cornerstone 45K I unplugged the white molex plug from the smaller square black box. What is the larger rectangular black box? I have nothing like that in my coach. Did you add that?

Check fuse #1 in the outside D/S compartment. If it says TV, removing the fuse should bypasses the TV lockout.

The cube on the left is the interlock for preventing the TV on while moving. most people just remove the cord from it then lay the box aside and plug the TV straight into the wall socket. The thingie on the right, I have no idea. chuck's method will probably do the same thing.

Actually, got a call from RVOne (Terri, our sales person) who said their is a house mode under auxiliary in the new systems that allow you to switch to it and the TV will automatically show what's on the GPS/Radio screen. Not sure if that is unique to the Cornerstone for 2015 or 2014 and later in all coaches. Not sure if the TV needs to be in "AV", but assume so. Haven't tried it yet...but that's a good salesperson.
And they do read the forum

Yes, Dave wanted to change from Dish to DirectTV. That's their device.
Our RVOne sales rep called and gave us a tip to try. If that doesn't work, I'll disconnect the molex plug and try that. I won't know until Saturday, that's when we hit the road to Yellowstone.
Thanks.

Dave, I tried unplugging the black box, no luck. That's what worked in our Anthem.

Oh well, you guys are techno. Have Dave try Chuck's method removing that fuse. If that doesn't work get Dave to hand you one of those wall voltage testers and try each one of those plugs when he puts the RV in drive. If that doesn't work Ask the dogs what to try!

That's what I was going to recommend as that's how mine works. It works this way on the 2014 and newer models. Using the house mode, you can also listen to music on your main entertainment speakers.

I unplugged the white fuse and voila, it worked. Now I have a new problem-the yellow connector for the AUX has come dislodged and I can't see where to reconnect it. The wires are very tightly bundled (as the should be). And I broke the drawer trying to get my hands back up in there. oh well, we will be at the factory in Oct. I'll ask them to help fix my boo boo. But, the bottom line is, your solution worked. I can see the TV when we are in gear, I just can't see the Nav from the Excit system.

Are you sure you broke the drawer or did the rail simply pop out of its track?
My drawer in the front console had popped out dozens of times -- I just pop it back in by pressing firmly down on the back of the drawer.
