A friend who does not have computer access/skills has asked me to post the following question;

"I would like to replace the front TV in our 2003 Winnebago Journey DL, Model WKP39QD. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to remove the TV. Can you help me find the answer?"

Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW, I searched Winnebago's website for any mechanical/structural drawings but I came up empty.

It should be similar to the one in my Ultimate. The facing of the wood cabinet has to be removed. Mine is secured by screws through the sides (hidden by wood plugs.) Then, the TV is secured by a metal strap over the tops. The hold-down nuts on each side have to be loosened. Another possibility ...on my rear TV, the front fascia does not come off. I have to remove a wood panel on the bottom of the TV cabinet to get to the hold-down nuts.

I emailed Winnebago asking for the structural diagram for the front TV area. They emailed me the diagrams in PDF format. This was for my old 1994 Vectra.

I have an 02 39QD and have replaced the original tv with a flat screen...I'm assuming that the 03 is the same...

1.Pop the screw covers and remove the screws from the bottom of the surround below the tv. There are about 6 or so...

2.Open the overhead compartment door on the left side where your vcr is..There are 2 or 3 wood screws going thru the frame going towards the tv..they are easier to see with a flashlight..Remove them...

3.Do the same on the right side where the video selector is..There is a face plate around the selector where your tv amplifier is that has to be removed...You may have to move the selector.. It is velcroed down...
That will allow you to see and remove the 2 or 3 screws going thru the frame on that side..
The surround will come out as a unit..Be sure to disconnect the speaker wires if you have one...

4.You will then see the metal strap that goes around the tv remove it (make sure this strap is tight when you reassemble..It is the source for a squeaking tv)..Disconnect the wiring from the tv and mark them..The thing is heavy so get help..That should do it..Let me know if I can help further...

We have an 04 Journey 39K with a horrible squeaking TV. Is the removal the same ? Hubby has been fiddling with it off and on for a few days but so far has not been able to get to the metal "strap".

Gotta love the search function. Thanks for the help Movin-on! Another project is well on its way.
