Cable signal not making it to the TV

Hello, I have a 2012 Fuzion FZ360.
My three HDTV's work perfect when connected to my rooftop antenna. Both analog and digital channels work great.
But, when I try to hook up to an RV park system, I just can't get it to work.
I've made sure the antenna booster was switched off and tried using both cable and satellite inputs with no luck.
The owners manual was really no help, other than saying to make sure the booster was off.
Any other ideas?

Check the coax cable connectors behind the cable panel your TV hooks to and also the outside connector. Mine were cheap and one had actually come off the antenna. I had the tools to put new connectors on the coax, you can buy the tools at Lowes or Home Depot for about $40 total.

It may not be hooked up, or the settings on the TV wrong. Did you re-scan once on cable?

Safari, good idea and I will do that too and it wouldn't surprise me to find the same thing you did.
jesilvas, good point and I have done that several times already, thanks!
Thank you both for the quick replies!

In another thread somewhere someone ask about using the park cable inlet for his Tailgater Sat antanna..... If you are not the original owner, Someone may have re-wired it. That's about all i can say.

Or the lead may have been stapled or just not hooked up at the factory, in another thread here I told how MY TV was hooked up at the factory (Short answer, WRONG).. In my case these are minor pains in the anatomy, but for some. it is serious. (I design and build some of my own electronics you see).

Thanks wa8yxm, i am the original owner and it won't surprise me to find something like that from the factory.
Although, everything else on my toy hauler has been terrific.

I had the same problem. Had two coax ports on the outside. One said cable, the other satellite.
Neither one fed the TV.
I ran another coax to the TV in the living room.
YMMV.

Here is a wiring diagram for the system on my XLR. Yours may be similar.



FWIW, I use the HDMI plug in the garage to connect a DVD player or my computer. I can watch whatever I have connected on the Living Room TV.
