Re: Troubleshooting issue Nevermind, found it! It was a bad splice under the opposite slide out. (the one that was working fine) It actually melted the wire in half, and it just fell apart when I touched it.

The other day, all 12V lights in our couch slide stopped working. (I later realized they still came on, but very very dim when turned on. I have confirmed it is not a switch issue, or the load side wiring going out to the lights. The opposite slide out lights still work fine, and they are on...

I just had our 1 year warranty work performed 9 days ago at the Heartland RV Service Center in Elkhart, IN. (2017 Road Warrior 425) one item on my list was the formation of air bubbles and wrinkles in my roof membrane, just behind the nose cap. They inspected it, and said it was completely...

We have a 2017 Road Warrior 425 we picked up in May. Everything is great, just want to stay on top of preventative maintenance. Should I be pulling the covers off the wheels and greasing the bearings? Exactly what grease would I use, and how often? I see a video on Youtube where the guy is...

Thanks Guys! I am towing to Nashville tomorrow morning. Once I get setup again, I will see if the valve is leaking, or if I need to look further at the pump.

I too am having this same issue, fresh water tank filling up when on city water. At first it was very slowly, weeks would go by and I'd notice the level creeping up. Now, it went from empty to full in about 24 hours, and water was coming out of the overflow lines by the front steps. Should I...

Thanks for the info. We are planning on staying in Northern Illinois for all of October/early November, and have to swing by Elkhart (Heartland) for warranty work around mid-November. After that, headed to Florida for the winter. We grew up in Illinois, so I'm not too concerned about the...

Hi Everyone, We purchased a 2017 RW 425 about 3 months ago, absolutely love it. This is our first RV, and have no experience in colder weather. While we have no plans to live in this through a winter in a cold area, we do need to pass through Northern Illinois & Northern Indiana in October...

Wow. Thank you very much for the useful information. I just wish it was about an hour earlier, lol. I removed one of the rear running lights on the trailer, found and pulled out the splices. I confirmed that the camera prep was a different wire than those lights (the camera prep was...

What a bummer. I plugged in the trailer, turned on the lights on the truck, have all running lights on trailer lit, and still no power to camera. I tried checking voltage with a meter, but the female plug on the camera prep is so small I can only get one lead in it. I walk back and forth between...

I just bought a Furrion FOS48TAPK-BL wireless observation system. My 2017 RW425 came with the prep. The camera drops right in, and plugs in, perfect fit. I plug the trailer into my truck and start it. I don't seem to be getting power to the camera. When I plug it into the 12v Y Harness that...

The magnetic diverter is a great idea, unfortunately, our supply register is along side our bed in the interior of the room. I could look at using one in the bathroom possibly. Would it be possible to install a duct booster fan somewhere in line? Something to pull the heat towards the rear...

That is great info, thank you. I may try restricting that a little bit to see if it helps, keeping that recommendation in mind. Is it safe to say this is fairly common in these rigs, and not a unique issue I need to have addressed at the dealer? We will be sleeping in it tomorrow night, and...

Hi Everyone, I just purchased a 2017 Road Warrior 425. I did the PDI this morning. This unit seemed to be in way better shape than most I've walked through (and that's a lot). Just a few minor things, cleaning, etc. One more serious concern was the heat distribution. I know this has been...

I too am interested in a 3611JS, or Road Warrior 362. The main issue for us is the lack of laundry prep. AJ Jones mentioned the lines could be ran (through the 1/2 bath to the garage) by the dealer. He said a ventless washer/dryer combo may be the way to go. Does anyone here have any input...
