Outside Entertainment Center locating wires

Hello to all. I am a new member and need help with a project. I am attempting to add an outside entertainment center. I have a 2000 Monaco Dynasty. Behind the forward TV, I found two sets of unused wires coiled up, one set included a grey wire, a white wire, and a coax wire; and the second set included a red wire, white wire, and a second coax wire. I talked with (Ron) Monaco Tech Support and he indicated this was likely the pre-wire for the outside entertainment center and the other end of these wire should be located in the PS bay just forward of the rear wheels. This bay already has a 120 outlet installed, but I have been unsuccessful in locating the TV wires. If anyone has a 2000 dynasty with the outside entertainment center, would you look and see where the wires enter this bay? I have pulled the ceiling panel in this bay with no luck. Also help from anyone with insight on this project, your help would be appreciated. My option is run new wires but getting the coax run from the TV box above the windshield does not look easy. Thanks

I had similar problam on our MH. Best little device is from a Home Depot store. "Wire chaser", cost about $25.00 but saves hours. Hook one end to chaser, then locate other end with remote sensor. Works thru walls for min. distance., or touch wires to get loud beep and red flashing LED. Be sure all wires are not powered. Good luck

Alleyman, Thanks for your tip. After reading your response, I did purchase a signal tracer in an attempt to locate the other end of the coax wires. I have not yet found the other end of the wires but am fairly sure they are not in the bay where I expected them to be. Obviously, these coax wires have to terminate somewhere so I will keep looking. The signal tracer has been very helpful in this quest.
