I haven't seen anything on Quartzite attendance for Jan 2023, for Heartland owners. Is there anybody going? Ron Jardot rcjar@aol.com

To all who gave me suggestions about my slide creeping out, thanks. What did the trick was cycling the slides approximately 5 times, and no more creeping out. So, whatever it was causing it, the cycling seemed to fix it. Thanks, Ron

Thanks for the suggestions. I had already checked for leaks, and it had been repaired recently for a hydraulic leak. so I will do some recycling of the slide. Ron

Dan, Yes the slide is hydraulic, and I assume the pump runs because I can open and close them without any problems. I have it parked at a friends house while I'm working on it, and the slide movement must be very slow, because it has opened only a few inches when I go back to it the next day. I...

Howdy all, I have a 2016 Heartland Oakmont, which I just recently upgraded with Lithium Ion batteries and an Inverter/charger. I'm going to be installing solar panels as well, when they come in. The problem is now with the new batteries, the B/R slide moves out about 3", after sitting...

Thanks Duane, Yes, batteries not cheap, but they are the best on the market right now. Have made the cables using 2/0 wire. Checking out another switch before final install. Ron Jardot

Thanks again Jim, my rig has a spot for the generator in the front garage/storage area where the batteries and hydraulic system is, but don't think it is generator prepped in that sense, where it would have a large transfer switch. I'll post some pics when all done, and solar will be next year...

Another Question for you Jim Beletti, Do the Heartlands have a built in transfer switch, other than the one that is attached to the Magnum Inverter? So, as I said, I have a residential Fridge, which has a Magnum transfer switch attached to the inverter. The AM Solar schematic I'm looking at...

Jim Beletti, Thanks for the info, pictures, and feedback. Yes, I will give them a call Monday and try to get a schematic. I have a residential fridge in my rig, so want to make sue all is correct. More than likely I will have a qualified electrician look everything over before final. Also...

Hello All, I'm in process of installing 4 Battleborn lithium ion batteries and the Victron Multiplus Inverter in my Heartland 2016 Oakmont. Has anyone out there done an install similar to this and what advice/helpful hints or precautions can you give me? A schematic would be the most helpful...

Thanks for the response Bill, I checked out the Walmart website you gave me, but don't see the exact one I need for the Oakmont. I will definately check out the YouTube videos, they are always a big help! Ron Jardot

I am in need of some advice on wiper seal and bulb seal replacement. I have a 2016 Heartland Oakmont, 325RE, and need to replace the wiper seals and bulb seal on the driver side slideouts, top outside only. I have requested from Heartland Parts and received some pictures of different wiper seals...

On my last outing, I noticed a small leak in the left front cylinder. I went through my purchase paperwork and realized I had bought an extended warranty, which will cover the repair! Scheduled to take in for repairs in December. Hopefully that will take care of it. Thanks to all who...

Thanks! I looked it up and found useful information and instructions in the manuals! Ron - - - Updated - - - Thanks! I have done a zero reset now and will be going to Ventura Beach this weekend with the rig! I'll check the fluid out when up and retracted. Wouldn't think its that, but it...

I have been having the same issues with my LCI leveling system on my Heartland Oakmont.. It would tip to the right side, and raise the wheels on the left side. I've had to manually level it the past two trips, but have never done a zero reset. Can someone explain that to me please? Thanks in...
