2018 Keystone Sprinter TV

Hello,

We just bought a Sprinter 334FWFLS and can't figure out how to pull the TV out to plug in a HDMI cable. There is barely enough room around the sides to put a finger so there must be a latch or something or if not you can't add devices.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
pmf

Sprinter TV

Never mind I called Keystone. They said it pulls out but it's tight. I didn't want to break anything.

Thanks,

There should be a latch you pull. On mine there is a short strap behind the tv on the bottom center. You pull it straight down.

We're in it now and I've put my hand as far as I can but can find no latch or cable to pull.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Pat

Some have a sizzors like mount and you have to hold each side and pull straight out. When stowed for travel there is a U shaped piece that grabs hold of the center shaft. We don't sell that model, so I may be way off, just going by the different styles I've seen. I do know they grab pretty good.

Can you get any type of mirror and a light for a better view of the back side?

When I installed my HDMI cable the TV lifted straight up to come off the bracket. There wasn't anything else holding it on.

I did look behind it with a mirror. There's 2 silver bars about 8" apart but have no idea how to release them

So the silver bars are vertical (up and down)? And if so is there black square tubes attached and horizontal?

Sounds like the pivot points are just real tight. I know it can be a bit scary, but I would give one side a pretty good pull and see what happens. I have had to loosen the pivot bolts just a tad on some.

I got it out a couple inches but that's it. I don't know if I'm pulling it out of the wall or what but now I can't push it back in.

Thanks again,
Pat

I did but still don't see anything different . The bracket or whatever it is doesn't look like it's moved but the tv has .

Not sure what to other than take it to the dealer.

Thanks

By the way. Should I work on just one side, pull on both sides or the middle?

One side then the other. If your getting nervous then take it in and let the dealer break it. That way they have to replace it.

I tugged on both side pretty hard this morning and after several tries it still didn't budge. I guess I'll try to call someone tomorrow or take it someplace. Pretty frustrating to say the least.

Thanks for all of your advice,
Pat
