What Kind of cable are you trying to hook up? If it's a dish satellite antennae you probably should use a HDMI cable. Did you install a Dish antenna? We need a lot more details over what equipment was installed . Some pictures and description of your equipment would be helpful too!

The HDMI cable can be connected to the bottom HDMI port without having to remove the TV from the wall. I couldn't remove mine either so I just found the most reachable HDMI connection port which is working perfectly.

Take pictures of what your TV looks like against the wall.

Do you have a camera that you can take pictures of as much as you can see of the bottom of the TV. I have a 2011 MH that was fairly easy to plug in cables.
