3010DS AV question

My wife and I are picking up our new 2013 3010DS on Saturday from Tom Raper. So Excited!!!

Question is... I noticed on the AV switch box that there is a outside AV selection but I cant seem to see where the coax jack is. Is that just an option on the box, or should there be a coax jack out there somewhere?

I use Satellite while out so I assume that I will have to make some changes to the coax input on the driver side connection. I have had to do this on all my trailers before this so I am assuming ill have to put a sat splitter in front of where the coax goes into the antenna booster?

Also

Also, are all 2013 3010ds models standard with Gas/Electric Water heater? I did not see an electric option on the house control panel.

FR uses Dometic water heaters. The electric on-off switch is on the heater itself. Remove the outside access door. It is in the lower left corner, partially hidden behind the gas line. It should have a pin in it that needs to be removed to operate. A good reminder that turning it on with no water in it will fry the element.

That option is just part of the box.

Congrats on the Sunseeker! I got mine from Raper also last June. We love it. Picked up some TPMS a few weeks ago to install.


Still figuring out the AV system but I love the camper so far. We should compare notes. Are you towing 4 down?

Ahhhh. I should have know that. I have dealt with that in my jeep.

Yes. We are picking up our 3010 today at the Columbus store. Then heading back home for a overnight tinker-athon. Loading it all back up with our gear. I may have them dewinterize it for us so we can use it tonight as she goes to the warm garage when we get back home.

Great. I'll probably be there around noon. If I see you I will say Hi! If not I'm willing to share any questions you may have.
