Palazzo outdoor TV - Page 2

PALAZZO13 · 05-08-2021, 11:36 PM

That plastic piece just dresses up the compartment. Nothing behind it to release anything. It definitely does not move up. I had to quit on it for now before I break the plastic back of TV. I'm still hoping somebody out there has one like this.

I've been all around the edges of this thing, even with a mirror. There is no screws or release of any kind.

There has to be 4 screws holding he mount into the back of the TV. That part of the mount has to connect to the part of the mount that secures the TV to the coach.

I say straight up
The TV goes straight up about 3/4”-1”
It’s hanging on a lip (of sorts)
It’s held in place by gravity and force downwards

Have you tried forcing TV straight up? And then it comes out...

Do you know this for a fact or just guessing because I've pull up on it so hard the chassis lifted. Well maybe not that hard but you get my drift

taylorbob1 · 05-09-2021, 02:43 AM

Ok
I give.
Gotta call Thor and/or take to dealer

taylorbob1 · 05-11-2021, 03:50 PM

Any update?
I’m dying to know the result

PALAZZO13 · 05-11-2021, 04:09 PM

Haha. Not yet. Just got back from a trip so I haven't messed with it again. I'll post when I do get it out. I'm gonna take door and frame off and see if the metal plate will come out with TV. If not, then I think fridge has to come out

This is how the paddles look like for my TV. They are not visible from the front.

My 2016 Palazzo has a mounting plate slightly larger than the TV. There are 4 screws which are barely visible at each corner. They look like Torx but they aren’t. A square bit works on these. The plate has a bent bracket that supports the weight of the TV. You lift up and out. I replaced my Seiki TV’s with Vizio’s and ran into the same problem getting the outdoor TV out.

PALAZZO13 · 05-12-2021, 07:45 PM

That's sounds exactly right. Maybe I missed the screws. I'll check again
Thanks!

Thanks for finally shedding light on this.

Here is a pic of the upper right corner of my 2016. The screw is black and has a pan head.

There are older mounts that are securely bolted in, then a mate with downward facing hooks is attached to the back of the TV. To remove this type you lift upwards on the TV to "unhook" it from the mount attached to the RV.

Good luck.

I HAVE PANEL INTHE bathroom that lets you get at the tv 35.5 2014 palazzo

PALAZZO13 · 05-12-2021, 11:37 PM

Pictures are hard to decipher but that is the upper right corner. You can see the frame it is mounted to. There is no plate with screws. No latches. I think TV is screwed to this frame. Fridge is 1/2 inch behind metal frame

I have a 2014 Challenger and ran into a similar issue. There is a frame mounted to the back of the TV that is then mounted on another metal frame FROM OUTSIDE the RV via the opening. Feel around and you should find 4 screws, 2 on each side but not quite at the corners. Remove those and the TV will come out with the frame attached.

I pulled mine out. Needed to get to the connectors to add blue tooth headphones. There are screws holding the back wall plate to the structure. If I remember correctly, four. Unscrew them and have someone to hold the TV unless you are good at holding and removing the plate and TV at the same time. I did it alone. I did not disconnect the existing cables form the TV since I just wanted to add the blue tooth headphone hardware. Removing the TV from the plate is easy after that. The mount is not articulating. It is fixed.

Do NOT remove the door frame. us a mirror and learn how to release the TV from the mount.
