How do I get to the back of the bedroom tv

I have a 2914 390bh and I need to get to the back of my bedroom tv. It hangs from the wall between 2 cabinets and does not have a removable frame around it. I can see 2 knobs towards the top of the bracket but when they are loosened the tv only tilts forward a few inches. I am trying to install a cable box and need to find where the cable comes into the bedroom so I can put the cable receiver into the loop.
Any ideas or help that can be provided is appreciated.

I had wondered the same thing on our 2018 40B coach. The TV hangs between two hanging wardrobe cabinets. I did notice a small metal lip towards the rear of the TV to the side. I pulled on it and to my surprise the TV swung out to the side, it was hinged mounted. As a plus I found that there was hidden storage to be had behind the TV.

I wonder if Border Patrol knows this?

On my 2014 Mirada there was a row of screws along the bottom which when removed allowed the TV to be lifted up and off the bracket at the rear. Look under the front lip of yours and if you see a couple screws try removing them to see if that gives you access. Have someone hold onto the TV while you remove the screws just in case. Hope this helps.

Storage behind the bedroom TV on my 2015 34QS

This thread perked my interest, so I poked around behind my bedroom TV. I noticed a hinge at the top and two gas struts on the sides, but couldn’t find a latch on the bottom.

Finally, I pulled out the bottom with a firm tug and voila: the TV pivoted up to show some generous storage space behind. The bottom was held by some strong magnets.

I wish the front TV did the same.

Kudos to Berkshire for these Easter Eggs.

Now if only someone would tell the dealerships about those hidden storage compartments because they OBVIOUSLY don't know about them....... come to think of it they couldn't even tell us how to get the couch to fold out.... poor uninformed fools!! I guess they will have to continue to rely on the lies they tell to put food on the table!!

You could connect your cable receiver via the hdmi matrix next to the L/R TV or connect to the SAT2 cable located behind the cable booster plate.

Where is the HDMI matrix located and how do I get the cable input to the receiver?

HDMI 4x4 Switch

The HDMI 4x4 switch is located next to the main TV in a cabinet. It will look like the attached picture.Click image for larger version

Name:	HDMI 4x4.jpg
Views:	99
Size:	76.8 KB
ID:	216090

There is a CAT6 cable from this switch to the following TV's
Living Room / Bedroom / Exterior / Front (If Available)
That CAT6 cable provides a HDMI input to the above TV's for viewing of any inputs on the 4x4 Switch.

You can connect any HDMI device to this switch, then on the device select you output, & select which HDMI input you would like to utilize. For example, if you have an Amazon Fire Stick, you can insert your firestick into HDMI input 1, then play the same movie from Switch Input 1 on all four tvs.


Here is a link to the User Manual:

I hope this helps. If you have any questions about it, you may want to contact your salesperson or Forest River Berkshire Customer Service.

Thanks, but my coach does not have this device. The only thing I have is a 1x2 HDMI splitter. It is a 2014 and they didn't equip my coach with the latest electronics when they built it.
