Go all the way to the antenna connection. Clean everything. Use a steel wool pad, or 600 grit, or something to clean everything at the antenna on the mast. Just replace the coax to the new pre-amp. Check the pre-amp is getting DC power from either the coax(in some cases) or the DC line to the pre-amp. I would just replace the coax from the pre-amp to the house. If you want to keep it, you'll need an O'scope to check the signal level at the output of the pre-amp and compare it to the output in the house. There's a certain amount of dB loss expected, but an O'scope or RF sensitive power meter is needed to check that. Better to just replace it.
Since both TVs were working fine before, you can sort of discount the wires FROM the splitter, bit go ahead and get a new splitter while you replace the coax. Or - you can try the splitter first, as it's the cheaper, and easier thing to swap, but more likely the outside cable. sorry.
