Hopefully, someone will chime in on your question, but it sounds like you may not have good electrical connections at the wiring connectors. Especially since the unit is a 2005. Try and follow your electrical cable check/loosen/retighten each one connection. Wiring has a habit of oxidizing and causing a "cold joint," so-to-speak. Someone who has a similar system may be able to help when they see your post.

Welcome Tony! Our Signature came with the same TracStar system. I also have not been able to get it to operate consistently. I connected our satellite receiver to an outside dish antenna for now.
I'm thinking of replacing the TracStar with a Winegard Trav'ler. The Trav'ler is similar to a residential dish and will receive three satellites simultaneously. There is another system out there that receives all satellites and one of the experts will chime in shortly.

Hi Tony!

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

I'm not familiar with that system so won't try to advise you. Just noticed that you are kinda new on IRV2 and wanted to say hello! Have fun and keep her between the ditches!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!
