Carver Mariner 350 TV Antenna Wire Problem

I'm looking for some more information on Carver Mariner 350 (2nd generation 1997-2003) TV Antenna Wire routing. I have several coax wires that come out of where the TV is in the main salon. One wire runs to the bedroom tv, One runs to the Antenna on the Arch, and One Runs to the transom for shore hookup.

I've separated all the wires and removed the splitter and a/b switch. I put a coax cable tester on my the wires to try to identify where they go. I was able to identify the wire that runs to the transom-shore hookup. That wire showed good with the tester. The other two wires, the wire running to the bedroom and the wire running to the antenna did not pass (showed a break or short).

How are the wires routed to the arch and bedroom?

As a side note: All the coax wire are disconnected and loos at the TV, but the Antenna light still lights up when the antenna is plugged in.

Have a look above the fridge...that cupboard has a removable back wall ( just pull the tab ) there is where you will find the cable connections to the amp, plugged in to the same as the fridge 110.....at least that was where it was on mine....went thru the same thing and Kenny (ramsport ) told me the location.........

Thank you. I found the wires behind the secret panel above the fridge. I was able to test the wires and they are all ok. The only wire that is still not working, is the wire that goes to the bedroom. How is the coax wire routed to the bedroom from the tv area?

Not sure but have a look in the hanging locker and if the cable comes from above, it may just run around the front behind the jump seat.....I think I remember seeing some coax in there while following speaker wires around...( lots of stuff in there ).......

I just recently purchased 1998 350 Mariner myself and have encountered the same exact questions. We have the cable in the salon working but nothing else.
