Fleetwood Providence cable tv ??

New 2014 Providence 42p on shakedown trip and trying to get all the systems working. I finally got the Direct Sat working but can't get the cable to the main tv working. Main tv gets air and sat and bedroom cable works so I know the cable feed is ok.

Any ideas?
Thanks

  • Glad that worked....as I have been in dual modes with my set up as I understand it..but I ask this to many things:

    WHY DOES EVERYTHING ALWAYS HAVE TO BE SO GOSH, DARN, COMPLICATED???????

    if my DW tries to tune it all in, forget it..and if she doesn't get her shows, I never hear the end of it...but she has a ROKU awaiting for Christmas along with some other things..this way she can watch her corny soap operas from online/to the TV....

    Also make sure you select analog channel 3 on your living room tv..if it is in digital mode on the setup menu..you'll get a blank picture as well so check the setup on the tv itself..amazing how complicated these things can get.


    BINGO changed to analog at it came right in.

  • Is there a selector box?...the cable may not be fully seated on that when you press cable for the main tv..hopefully you can get behind that...as in my coach...it is a production to do.

    Make sure the booster button on your antenna (air) is turned off. Cable won't work with the booster on. The bedroom could be wired directly with teh cable and is not affected.

    Thanks, I've tried on and off. Starting to think a wire isn't connected some where. They made it almost impossible to behind the receiver to check.
    Thanks for the reply
