You should remove the LCD TV from your Hybrid and store it in your house in a heated area if you live in an area subject freezing temps..
Freezing and continued thaw cycles will damage most LCD TV's.
Also, when you put it back in the Hybrid in the Spring, you should be aware that if there is a substantial difference between inside temperature compared to outdoor temperature in colder weather, it is recommended that you wait 24 hours for the circuitry in the LCD to warm up to the heated room temperature so as not to cause condensation on the circuit boards and damage.

No problem. It's kind of a shame that RV electronics are in the race for the bottom of the barrel in pricing and quality.
The RV makers keep on making them cheaper and cheaper, but not better.
The auto companies can spec DVD players/lcd's  (electronics) for cars that will stand up to the rigors of hot/cold weather.
There is no reason except price,
that the RV makers couldn't put better electronics in their RV's should they care to.

I hear what your saying. Mine came with that Jensen multi player unit, DVD,CD, MP3, AM/FM etc. and terrible sound quality. But the searches I've seem don't seem to come up with any better quality replacements. I mean I'm not looking to Install a home theater, but I wonder about the quality of it and the lifespan.

I've looked and the others I've found are an even lower quality than the Jensen.
Jensen now has a 12 volt 19", but I don't think I 'd spend that kind of money on them.

I might have lead you astray, The LCD is an RCA, the only flat screen I own. The Jensen is the mounted stereo unit.

No problem, the RCA isn't really RCA anymore. It's whoever in China bought the name.
The Jensen is the same way.
