36.1 Palazzo anyone hard wire HDMI to the outside TV?

So I'm trying to run a long HDMI cable to the outside TV and was wondering if anyone found a good solution?

I have removed the panels in the half bath and accessed the back of the TV, just looking for a way to fish the wire forward. I see wire bundles, heater conduit, and piping running forward but it's a tight squeeze. Anyone figured this out already?

I am set on hard wiring, not looking for wireless. Thanks.

I did this on my 33.2 fishing the cable up through the wall of the bathroom. Where is the electronics cabinet on the 36.1?

Where are you trying to run the cable to? If it is the overhead to the right as you enter then I went behind the fridge and up the that cabinet.

I put a wireless HMDI connector in. Much easier, it's been in for 2 years, works fine.

I put an IOGEAR HMDI extender in, also put in a RocketFish swivel HMDI adapter to get to the HMDI port on the TV. Installed by access panel behind the TV in bathroom, did not have to take the TV out.

Hope that helps.

I'm trying to run the cable forward inside the wall on the passenger side.

I've already got it inside the wall in the half bath. Just need a path forward that eventually pops out inside the cabinets on the passenger side.

I'm not sure how to get past the furnace and the fridge.

I can't see from the online floor plan of the 36.1 but it appears there is no cabinet over the refrigerator. My guess is that you need to pull the refer then you can take the cable across the wall behind it and get into the false bottom on the upper cabinet to the left of the refer. After that it's cabinet by cabinet until you get to the electronics, which I assume are by the front TV.

If you post a picture/pictures of that wall in your rig from the refer forward I can probably identify the path to use, having done this twice, once to get HDMI to the external TV and again to get it to the bedroom TV.

I was hoping someone would have found a path on a 36.1 that did not require pulling the fridge. If I can get the wire past that I will do it exactly as you say, cabinet to cabinet.



From another post pulling the fridge sounds like a pain.
" The two top brackets are secured with wood screws to another structural wooden header and to the fridge with the two sided tape. After removing the wood screws, the brackets can be re-positioned by prying the brackets up, away from the fridge. The two sided tape is strong and can be reused. I was tempted to add sheet metal screw to the bracket/fridge joint but was cautioned against this. There are capillary tubes in the fridge that are easily punctured. The key is to get the fridge in place and then force the brackets down flat on the the two sided tape while re-installing the wood screws. My fridge has not shifted before or since re-installation.

Re-installing the wooden valance required pulling the brad nails out from the back side of the board and scraping off some residual hot glue. I re-installed it using a pneumatic brad nailer with 18 gauge wire brads set in the ogee recesses of the header board."
