We are running a network cable from the front TV along the driver's side of the coach allllllll the way back to the bedroom TV compartment. We have a 40' 1997 U320 WTBI. We need ideas on how to get the cable from the convection oven area, behind the fridge (which will be taken out of it's compartment tomorrow), and into the bathroom closets/washer dryer area. We have the problem of the spice racks/small pantry, and then pocket door and track. Any ideas?
Run it through the chase between the wall and the roof. There is probably already a hole for the cable to exit near the TV. Picture shows where the cables for my rear cameras exit on the dr side in the rear BR overhead cabinet.
I used a 50 foot metal fish tape to pull two coax cables from front (behind TV) to rear (cabinet over bed).
I posted how to locate the cable chase on our '96 295 a while ago.
There really is a Cable Chase!! (http://www.foreforums.com/index.php?topic=30168.msg259566#msg259566)
Look in the compartment above the vertical chase next to and above the the drivers seat . take out the panel and you should find where other wires go into a cavity that is part of the roof structure extending from front to back.
the other end is was in the rear tv area.
use a fish wire to run to the other end.
hth
hope all is going well

For some reason when I pulled two new video/power/audio cables from the front to the rear it was much easier when the fish tape went in at the rear and we fed the cables in from the front. Make a nice taped up smooth thing to pull and use wire pulling lube. Much easier that way.
If you look in the cabinet where the TV is there is likely a hole in the chase beam already.
