To upgrade the existing entertainment center in my 2007 Inspire I need a wiring diagram. Is there something like this available? Has sombody made a change like this? I also need to know how to reach the upper HDMI inputs on the Sharp TV.
Have i to remove the TV and if yes how to do it?

Hi Hermann,

Did the same with my Inspire. Open the cupboard to the right of the TV. You'll notice the panel inside on the left has screws holding it in place. Just remove the screws and the panel can be removed exposing the input connections to the TV.
Most of the wiring behind the entertainment system is marked. What wasn't I made note of before disconnecting them. Wasn't a problem at all.

Barney,

When you removed the 4 screws did you have a problem removing that panel? I'm looking at adding a game system for the grandchildren but even after I removed the screws I was unable to get this panel to move, it's very tight.
Thanks

Hi Dave,

I have some small tools like you would expect to see at your dentists office that I could insert into a screw hole and pull on the panel. But it wasn't that difficult to remove as I remember. It's a real pain to remove the TV just to connect an HDMI cable!
Maybe try removing the panel on the left side of the TV. If you can get that one out maybe you can insert something behind the TV to push the right panel out from the back side? Just a thought.

Dave,

The panel I have used for access to the TV is INSIDE THE CABINET LOCATED TO THE RIGHT OF THE TV on its LEFT HAND WALL, not the cabinet to the left side of the TV.
I have even mounted Wii game connections on that removable (once you find the screws) cabinet wall.

Hi Barney,

thank you very much, it was easy.

I added a blue ray player and an Iomega Screen Play Director with a 1 TB Harddisk.

Dave,

forget the panel on the backside of the TV.
You can only reach the two lowest inputs and the are already taken.

Thank you all, everything worked fine and is done.
Installed a blue ray player and an IOMEGA movie director with 1 TB.
Called Country Coach for an electric diagram of the entertainment center, it took a few days

and they called back. Offered me a common diagram (maybe works for my coach) for $25.

So I make my own one. (have a master degree in car technology-University of Aachen, Germany-)

Bought 3 new Country Coaches in 8 years. So much to customer service.

You might check with Oregon Motorcoach Center in Junction City, OR. *(800 942-6860). They also have a very close connection to Country Coach as most of their employees are former techs and this company is owned by Bob Lee and his son in law, Pat Mason.
