Dash radio to coach speakers

I have no been able to get the dash radio to play over the coach speakers. I have all Samsung components. One thread talks about a "House" button. Where is the house button? Any other helpful hint or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

You don't have one and neither do I. That feature was added in 2014.

Our 2013 Aspire had it. I am really not that fond of it, you must go in the coach to make any adjustments to volume. I would much rather had my outside radio be Sirius ready, or at least blue tooth.

Here is what I do.
I have a portable xm receiver connected to this transmitter. I can listen to the radio outside by tuning to a fm frequency. I can also listen to it on the road inside using the same method. My home theater system has a fm tuner so I can listen to it on that also. Bonus is that I have the same setup in the S/B and bring the xm receiver inside when we are not in the coach.

Here's how it works for me:

1. Turn on the Bose system
2. turn the dash radio on
3. Select the "Mode" button
4. Bottom left corner of the screen select "House Mode"

Enjoy

Unfortunately, none of that applies since his coach is pre-Bose.

Call Mike Connell at the cs number. He is very good with electronics. Straightened us out last week when we visited the plant.

Thanks for all the help. We have figured some of it out and will work on the rest of it when we visit the factory in July for our two year check-up. Looking forward to spending more time in our new home now that the weather is warmer.

While I do not know about your RV. (Questions will follow) I know my Dash Radio was designed to "Share" the house speakers from the factory... alas they could have done a better job.. but I did not design it (my field,not theirs it appears).

On mine when the Ignition Accessory line becomes "HOT" there is a relay that transfers the speakers, leaving the home theater... Without.. This is not a good thing, also only 2 of the six speakers transfer (They should have transferred 4).

And... They should have plugged in the *)@(#$#@U PLUG fully.

Took me quite a while to find the plug they failed to plug in all the way (A multi-pin molex connector on the relay box)

Mine work well through the Bose system in both the front and rear speakers. Just turn them on and the volume up.

Here's a variant on the Outside Speakers from the Dash issue:

We have a switch in the compartment over the PS seat. It never worked to do anything.

We also had a problem with blowing several fuses for the dash radio.

Asked PJ to check it out as to why the switch wouldn't work. Blew the fuse. Hmmmm We decided we were on to something.

Jumped the hot wire and lo and behold the dash radio was playing outside.

Rewired the hot wire - all is good; but the A-pillar had to be removed to run the new wire.

Apparently in mid-2013 the switch was added. (I think Marc who has the same model but a couple of weeks earlier doesn't have it.) The correct wiring wasn't figured out right away and I was just lucky to be one of the first before they learned to do it right.

Now if we could get the dash to play over the Home Theater system - but apparently that isn't likely.....

I do have that switch and it works fine for me, but I thought the original post asked about connecting the dash radio with the interior coach speakers, not the outside ones.
