Hi, Ive got a 17.56.2 touring for a few years now, bought new. We have never used the antenna, last trip we tried to set it up but could not get any reception, been trouble shooting since coming home and found a short on the cable running from the TV antenna input outside of the van running to the splitter, changed the connection on the splitter end but still no luck. Need to access the back of the TV antenna input thats on the outside of the van. Does anyone know how to remove or get into the paneling? Attached photo which is under the table. Cheers

Jayco cabinetry is installed before the walls are attached, so often its difficult or impossible to easily access certain areas. Unscrew that power point and look inside the cavity to see if the panel is removable from inside the van. There are 2 capped off screws either side at the top of the vertical panel and an alum extruded corner which would suggest the top section has to be removed first

Hi Beaker, thanks for your advise. Found that you can easily run new cable by accessing it from the out side of the van at the point . Stanly run around the cover and the whole thing sides up . Thanks
