Bedroom Television

Bedroom television does not get any reception when you try to search for channels it does not come back with any channel possibilities. Almost like the coax is not hooked up at all. I have checked all connections at TV and they are good as well connection in ceiling. Where would the other end of the coax possibly be so I can check it.

Would be a little easier if you told us what year make and model trailer we are talking about.

Go to input on your remote and ensure you are on the coaxial setting.
You will have 5-6 options and need to get on the right match.

Im sorry I forgot to put the most important part in the question. My unit is a 2013 Crossroads sunset trail reserve 30rk. I have tried all of the settings as well as checked to make sure the booster is turned on. I tried it with the booster turned on as well as off. I also ran a cable from the cable outlet to my living room tv and it didnt work either. But it works in the living room. Either the cable in roof is bad or it isnt hooked up on the other end. Thanks for any and all help.

Has the bedroom TV ever worked or is this a new or new to you rig?

First thing I would try before chasing cables in the walls is eliminate the possibility of the TV being the problem. Hook up the living room TV (known good) to the connection in the bedroom. Then hook up the bedroom TV the living room connection (also known good).

If bedroom TV works in the living room, and the living room TV doesn't work in the bedroom, you know it's the cable.

See what happens and let us know.

I had the same issue and it turned out to be a bad crimp on the coax cable. Mine was at the output of the booster but it could be anywhere on the cable for your unit. Are your booster connections accessible?

I did swap the TV's and they work in different places. I see one coax coming out of the front of the booster behind the tv should there be a second one. It is a new to me unit.

I was referring to the back side of the booster. Mine is accessible from the fridge vent covers but not sure where yours is. I believe you will have three cables connected to it.

Mine is located next to the television in the case. You are talking about where you flip the switch and the red light comes on correct

Yes but on the other side of the wall, (the back side of the booster) are where the coax cables attach and then go to the bedroom etc. You should have a owners manual on the booster or you can go online and read which cables do what. You would be looking for the cable to the bedroom and see if you have a TV signal on the booster output. It's a place to start.

Just remove the screws holding the booster plate to the box and check that connection on the back side of the plate. If thats ok remove the antenna connection plate in the bedroom and check that connection
