    Television interference caused by furnace.

    Has anyone experienced interference with the television when the furnace runs. It occurs whenever our furnace fan cuts on in our 303RLS. This is disruption affects digital off air signals. It affects some channels more than others. The picture becomes pixelated and sound has static. It is only from the furnace and not the air conditioner. The television is the Haier.

    Hi Tom & Tanya

    We have same coach, same TV, (and likely the same furnace).
    Can't say that we ever noticed this problem.
    Perhaps one of the EEs can tell us what capacitor or other electrical thingy is not working

    Hi Tom and Tanya (@Soldotnatom)

    We will need your 17-digit RV VIN to reply to your concern. Please add it to the "About Me" section of your forum profile, and let me know when that is done. Also, if the TV has been changed out (or you have added a TV) or made any changes to the audio-visual system of your RV please send me a private message detailing that information. Thank you in advance...

    Best regards,
    ~ Janice

    Janice,
    i added the vin to my profile. The audio visual is original except we unhooked the stereo speakers from the television and we added a satellite receiver which is currently turned off. We did not use over the air signals until after April 20, 2015. We began noticing the interference in June when we quit using the satellite, but just recently noticed that it occurred when the furnace started since the furnace runs much more often as get cooler in Alaska. So we tested and found it was occuring due to the furnace. I tightened the connectors on the junction box near the Kantleak valve and which is adjacent to the furnace, but the interference still occurs.
