(Maybe I've found the right forum, ask others before, no help) My Expedition is a 2006 38N purchased new from Lazydays. I was told it was not preped for CB radio but have been wanting to add one. A few months ago we met some new friends who had a (nearly) identical Bounder, it had the same antennas on the roof, every thing the same (2 antennas, one Sirius radio antenna, one satellite dish dome, dual horns, batwing TV antenna). The guy said the second antenna on the roof was CB, he found his radio connector bundled in the wiring just above floor level behind the center console, just to the right of the driver's right foot. I hunted some but could not find mine. Should I hunt somewhere else? Appreciate any help.

Look under dash on drivers' side.

Steve, That was really quick. Thanks. In a couple of days when it warms a bit, I'll look further and report back to you. (it's below 20 deg here in Dunnellon, FL this morning)

Antennas on the roof will be a short or possibly flat black for sirius radio, a metal am/fm antenna. If you have 2 metal antennas then you probably have a CB antenna. The batwing and sat dish will be located over "house" area of motorhome. Radio antenna will be located over cockpit area. If you have a radio in the bedroom then another metal antenna may be mounted in the rear.

It warmed some yesterday, so I went to the motorhome and I looked carefully under the driverside dash, and again under the center part of the dash (forward of the swing-out cover). I even looked in the left overhead, where the CD/DVD player, etc are located - - bunch of coax there but didn't find a free end that would attach to a CB. I didn't find any antenna coax. Your second post indicated the second metal antenna on the front of the roof was a CB antenna. I didn't pull the dash cover above the steering wheel to look though that may be a convenient location for the CB. Where else might I hunt? (I did have a good electrical questions contact at the factory but don't expect to get through now.)

That is the only location we have seen the wiring located. It can however be wrapped in a bundle and be behind the dash. It should be accessable from under the dash at the drivers feet area. Check with several technicians here and no other location that they are aware of has been used. Most of your Fleetwood contacts are still available. Maybe someone else has found their hard to find CB wiring on their Expedition?
