Television - putneyflash - 03-12-2006 15:13 I have several questions about the TV in my 1983 FC-35. the TV screen comes on no rear picture, but the previous owner installed a 5" tv on the dash and the back up camera works fine on this TV. Is the silver box located above the drivers seat the actual TV? when i move some on the knobs i see movement on the TV sreen ( the orginal TV screen)verical, contrast etc. has anyone had one of these units repaired? can i installed another TV in place of the orginal and get rid of the silver box.? is there an indicator that shows the TV antenna is rotating? does the CB radio run through the silver box? how is the silver box mounted, mine is setting loose on the shelf. That for all the help I know I will get, this is a great site and you folks have a lot of knowledge re brake 1983 FC-35 Television - Tom Warner - 03-12-2006 15:19 "The silver box" is part of the electronics for the Cathode Ray tube mounted over the front of the driver. PMMI took apart a TV set and put part of it in the "Silver Box" and part in the overhead in front of the driver. There is really not enough room to replace the TV screen with a TV so I made a cherry cabinet mounted on too of the dog house for mine. I repaired mine and it works fine now. tom warner 1982 FC35 Vernon Center,NY The "Silver boxAt 10:13 PM 3/12/2006, you wrote: >I have several questions about the TV in my 1983 FC-35. >the TV screen comes on no rear picture, but the previous owner >installed a 5" tv on the dash and the back up camera works fine on >this TV. >Is the silver box located above the drivers seat the actual TV? when i >move some on the knobs i see movement on the TV sreen ( the orginal TV >screen)verical, contrast etc. >has anyone had one of these units repaired? >can i installed another TV in place of the orginal and get rid of the >silver box.? >is there an indicator that shows the TV antenna is rotating? >does the CB radio run through the silver box? >how is the silver box mounted, mine is setting loose on the shelf. >That for all the help I know I will get, this is a great site and you >folks have a lot of knowledge >re brake 1983 FC-35 > > > > > > >SPONSORED LINKS ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Recreational+vehicles&w1=Recreational+vehi\ cles&w2=Wanderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+dealer&w5=\ Used+recreational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=DAUkCKkU7Dzhn_\ ObWmSYTw>Recreational >vehicles ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Wanderlodge&w1=Recreational+vehicles&w2=Wa\ nderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+dealer&w5=Used+recre\ ational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=Z-8HJdysB3QLPj9U0JvqYQ>W\ anderlodge ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Automotive+maintenance&w1=Recreational+veh\ icles&w2=Wanderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+dealer&w5\ =Used+recreational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=IF4u_5wI8Pmy3\ 4cC1O9CxA>Automotive >maintenance ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Recreational+vehicle+dealer&w1=Recreationa\ l+vehicles&w2=Wanderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+deal\ er&w5=Used+recreational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=z6_Xahae\ YHfELr6o72IW1A>Recreational >vehicle dealer ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Used+recreational+vehicles&w1=Recreational\ +vehicles&w2=Wanderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+deale\ r&w5=Used+recreational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=UGEY5km4L\ -kXbDI4ZSadEw>Used >recreational vehicles ><http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Automotive+radiators&w1=Recreational+vehic\ les&w2=Wanderlodge&w3=Automotive+maintenance&w4=Recreational+vehicle+dealer&w5=U\ sed+recreational+vehicles&w6=Automotive+radiators&c=6&s=163&.sig=ePNVMmISsCWgTnM\ q_4GlXA>Automotive >radiators > > >---------- >YAHOO!

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Television - erniecarpet@... - 03-14-2006 09:11 you are probably correct, Jeff. of course when you buy cheap stuff~ ernie-headed to texas in am [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Television - Jeff Miller - 03-14-2006 13:47 A TV on the doghouse can use the antenna connection at the co-pilot's feet. The "silver box" is the TV electronics for the backup monitor, a Toshiba AC/DC color TV is split in two for the installation. If the TV still works properly, and they're pretty durable, it makes an excellent backup monitor. One issue with these monitor sets is the original RCA Vidicron-tube camera, not very good at this age. The monitor is color, you can use it with a color camera, the problem becomes reversing the video in the TV to accomodate a new-style camera. This is easily accomplished by reversing the red and blue wire in the four-wire connector in the tuner-box/siver-box, just reversing the wires shouldn't take more than 15minutes. - Jeff Miller in Holland, MI --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, putneyflash@... wrote: > > Thanks Tom: am i to understand you repaired the silver box.? when you installed the TV on the dog house do you use the TV connector on the floor by the co-pilot. where is your back up monitor??i was thinking of installing it in place of the orginal TVscreen.

Ernie-83pt40 leaving louisiana [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Television - krminyl@... - 03-16-2006 10:52 Not a real scientific answer, but I believe mine is turning because the signal (picture) gets better (or worse) as you hold down the "rotate" rocker switch. I would guess that if your TV picture never changes (try different channels), the element inside the dome isn't rotating like it is supposed to. I guess you could take the darn thing apart, and look inside the dome while someone works the switch. Have fun...I hear that the antennas are still available. Check the archives.
