My cables were unmarked and the PO had disconnected most of them and got many of them incorrectly installed on the back of the switch box. What I did was find every cable I could throughout the RV and using parts I had adapted from cables I bought at thrift stores, found where each cable went.
What I did was cut off the connectors from cables I bought, usually under $0.50 each, and soldered a 1000 ohm resistor across the wires. Plug that into the various jacks throughout the RV and then used a DVM to find the other end of a cable that measured 1,000 ohms. Than marked its location.
Of course this was all made easier by removing as much equipment from the entertainment cabinets as possible. Including the TV. Some cables could just be eyeballed that way too.
What I found in my case was that the input cable from the basement had been incorrectly connected to one of the selector switches outputs instead of the main input.
Good luck, and have fun!
