Access to back of LR TV

am new owner of a Cedar Creek Cottage 40CCK. Need access to back of TV for a couple of reasons. Can't see a mount release or arm.
Anyone have knowledge on how to get to the connections?

2016 Silverback bedroom TV is just a lift and pull to remove. I did an upgrade and added a small shelf at the top of the mount for a blue ray player. It is an easy removal.

Lift up and out. I have to wiggle mine a little to get it to loosen up. The first time I tried it didn't want to come up but a little wiggle is all it took.

I have a 2016 CC Silverback. I just took the one in the living room off the mount. On the left side, I had two push buttons that when pushed in allowed the left side to be pulled out to clear the mount. In the right the part of the bracket attached to the TV is a L that slides into the slot on the wall. So, pushed the two buttons on the left in and rotate TV bracket out to clear the wall bracket. Now move the TV to the left to disengage the L bracket from the wall bracket on the right.

You should be able to see if this is the type you have by looking in on each side.

Good luck!

TV in Living Room

We had a hard time removing our TV also. After We wiggled and jiggled We got it off to find a pull chain on the release (light the kind on light bulb fixtures).

Reach around the left side of TV about 1/3 of the way down and there is the chain.

tv mount

after talk to Forest River Service I found that our mount is connected to the wall mount with a 2 button release.
if snooping with a flashlight from below look for the two buttons, they should be easily visible in the black mount.
access to the 2 silver buttons is from the bottom middle of the tv---push both buttons up and the tv mount bracket should release from the wall bracket. the tv and wall brackets are slid together in a slot at the top. Slide the tv down and away from wall and it should come loose.

If yours has the power lift like I was able to see online, then you should be able to get to all the wiring when the TV is in the up position,, I am sure there is some wire guide to stop the wires from becoming stuck, but you should at least see that while up.
If that does not work I would call FR service and ask them
hope this helps Happy camping Merry Christmas

Here's another common mount used.
It actually has a 'V' shaped mount.
