Booster switch should be in the location of where cable comes from the wall into the tv.

Like 32Deuce said. Little button on the plate with cable connection and a little green light next to it.

As stated above.

On our 2012 Solera, the 12 volt “cigarette lighter“ outlet the TV plugs into for power is incorporated in the same plate. The antenna boost switch and its little green light are “hidden” behind the 12 volt power outlet and TV power plug.

If it's like mine, the cable input would have never worked despite all the button pushing and fancy green lights.... Has yours worked, in the past?


Here's what I found:





Assembly... Give a monkey a zip router, and he'll route anything in the way...

Antenna booster

When hooked to cable the picture is very fuzzy I was told to turn off antenna booster. It is not near antenna cable or near exterior cable connection. Any other ideas where this switch is?30 ft sunseeker 2014

Can you tell us the model number of this rig? It's length doesn't help people know its internal configuration.

On my Forester, similar to sunseeker, the booster is in the small cabinet above the entry door. It has a 12 volt outlet and a cable connection and a small button that turns booster on and off. Button In/ light on = booster on, for antenna/air signal.
Button Out/ light off = booster off and ready for cable. After locating booster, turn it off, go to television menu and set tv input to Cable. Run channel scan.
Done.

Looking for something like this. Black arrow is tiny button. Green arrow is small led light. May or may not have a 12 volt outlet. Click image for larger version
