where in Denver area can we find someone to fix our satellite..techs all say it's a wiring issue & they don't know how to access the wires
 
Probably an RV shop, since it involves cabling inside an RV.  Are we talking about wiring between a dish and the receiver, or the receiver and the tvs? The usual technique is to temporarily run a new wire around the suspected one and see if that fixes the problem. If it does, then figure out how to replace the defective one.

Regular satellite techs don't know much about RV and mobile satellite, nor do they want to spend the time to learn and/or figure out what is awry. Blaming problems on stuff you can't see is an easy out.

Yup.

Welcome!  All of your wiring diagrams are available on-line, check out the Winnebago Resources post near the top of this board.  What is your year, model and floorplan of your Winnebago?  What kind of satellite system do you have - dome, open dish, etc?  Dish or DirecTV?

Wiring is easy to bypass for testing purposes.

 
you know we have the king dome, with dish network. I think it has worked a total of 2 times. it has been replaced once under warranty. so we just use the cable hook ups at the cg.
