HeY all, I’m looking for ideas on this problem because I am pretty much out of ideas. Recently we have been unable to get signals to our TVs both connected to cable or through the antenna. Before our next trip I decided to dig into the problem starting with the cable lines through the...

2008 Bighorn, just prepping for a trip and while replacing light bulbs in the LR wall lamps found the 15A fuse was blown. Further found my propane alarm was activating by turning the lamp switches of and on, or even removing the light bulbs. This is all while the fuse is blown. Replace the fuse...

Van, I am having a similar problem but it was only noticed when I had my suspension replaced, before that my braking was fine. The confusing part for me is the 3V drop from the truck plug to the J-box but only 1.0V from the box to the brakes.

Yes it does, and all my tests have been with the controller full on. I think I'm going to run some jumpers from the truck receptical to the j-box and see what I get at the brakes before I replace the plug.

Been a long time since I've been on, obviously working too much. This is issue goes all the way back to last August when we were going to one of my wife's art functions in Montana. On the way we found our suspension was trashed. Long story short we had to replace both axels and springs which...

Thanks for the comments, in any case the news is not good. I wonder if I get hold of customer service if they can tell me if I have the frame without gussets, I certainly would like to get that repaired if needed.

On my Boghorn the skin on the underside front surrounding the pin box is sagging in the middle and wrinkling along the edges where it joins the side walls. There are now gaps up to 1/2" along the edge seems. Is anyone experiencing the same thing? Not sure how this is attached to the frame...

Thanks for the advice, I'll check it out this weekend.

The bedroom slide on my Bighorn sometimes creeps open about an inch or so per day to a maximum of about four inches. Anybody had this issue? Any ideas?

You guys on the west side are livin' large.....Over here in Naches the forecast is -5F tonight. Our high today was 16 with 4" of snow. Fortunately I put on my skirting this weekend...We're at 10F right now and nothing has frozen up yet, but tonight will be the test. Stay warm everyone!!

She says it is a metallic odor

I am told by DW that our hot water stinks (fortunately I can't smell anything). I drained the hot water heater and it seems to have improved. I did notice quite a lot of sediment in the bottom of the heater tank, anybody have an idea how to flush this sediment? I'm wondering if this...

Thanks for the input, I'll check these things out today.

I originally owned a Montana and was fairly happy with it. Issues however was the frame was rusting after only a few months after purchase, which is surprising living in the arid San Joaquin Valley. Keystone was not willing to do anything about it. I did not like the basement storage compared...

I'm having an issue with the light bulb at the office desk burning out at least every few weeks. Have not taken the time yet to put a volt meter on it.......anybody experienced this problem? Could it be an issue with the power supply not regulating the voltage? Only one light is having the...

Surprised to see this thread still here......We bought the Verizon USB 760 back in Jan and it works great. During our trip from CA to WA my DW surfed all the way while I drove. Checking my ATT IPhone connection against her Verizon 3G connection there was no comparison, Verizon all the way. We...

Can I purchase the Jensen system through Heartland? I have the Coby and it is an absolute piece of junk. Seems people like the Jensen.

We have found it curious that since we have been fulltiming in Yakima, WA we have not sigted one Heartland product, well maybe one on the highway. We have been at Suntides RV Park in Yakima since Jan 15 and there has not been one other Heartland trailer, in fact we don't see many in WA, what's...

I have been towing a Bighorn with the short box Dodge for three years, two with the Mega Cab and one with the Crew Cab (both 6' beds). I use a B&W hitch which is not a slider and have had no problems. Obviously you need to be careful when cutting in on a tight turn but I have never found it to...

I recently had my bearings done with 6K miles on the rig.....The bearings were good, but the brakes needed work, so I was glad we had it done before our trip north through Oregon.

Very impressed with the Verizon 3G service....DW was connected while driving through some fairly remote areas of N. CA and OR along I-5. Only dropped connection once just south of Eugene. Looking at my Iphone I had no 3G signal through most of the remote areas while the Verizon 3G had a strong...

Thanks for the comments.... Alex, is there any advantage to have modems that support Global Access? Unfortunately all that do support global at Verizon are not Mac compatible. If we were only using this in the BH I would strongly consider the MIFI, but since we want to put it in our house I...

Hi Hank, Looks like it will be Gig Harbor, when I checked with Lake Pleasant they would not accept our dog since she's over 40lbs.....Never heard of that rule before, only breed restrictions.

Does anyone have an opinion which Verizon 3G modem I should buy especially if I plan to use it with Cradlepoint? Any differences? Any more compatible than others? This will eventually be used in our home which will have no broadband cable capabilities.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations, looks like it's either going to be Gig Harbor or Lake Pleasant.

Kristy, Thanks for the information, its exactly what I needed....We drove 97 two days after Christmas and it was frozen all the way from Klamath Falls to the Columbia Gorge. We'll stick to I5 and check pass conditions as we go.

Been to Gig Harbor before but not the RV Resort.....Does it look like there are spaces available?

We are finally preparing to make our move from California to Washington. Final destination is to be Yakima, but with the cold weather I'm considering parking DW in the Seattle area until end of Feb so we don't have to deal with freezing pipes. There's also going to be a couple of week we'll be...

After our electric fireplace (DESA) went out last week I am concerned......Upon removal of the rocker switch I found the connectors had over-heated and melted the insulation.

The rocker switch on my fireplace just fried. Took the thing apart and found the wires to the rocker switch overheated and one melted the spade connector off the switch. Seems a fuse should have blown before the switch fried. Has anybody experienced this yet. I've cleaned up the wires and...

BC, Does the heat tape you are using say "not to be used on hose"? All tape I find gives this warning, not sure why since they never get much hotter than 70F. I've done the same with the work light in the plumbing area.

Just in time for the holidays and company our air bed has sprung a leak...Looks to be on one of the thermal seams so patching may not do the trick. I hate to admit it but the patch kit is a bit confusing. There are two round pieces, one matches the top velour surface the other is black vinyl...

I'm not having problems with the door joints, but recently the entire door frame came off the cabinet above the commode, to my daughter's surprise. The frame was attached to the cabinet interior with ten staples and no glue. It was an easy fix, just ran a bead of wood glue and the staples...

I recently developed issues with the front landing jacks as have others which have been well documented on this forum. One thing I have not seen mentioned is if there is a binding issue that could be putting additional load on the motor and the gears. In my case the problem developed slowly...

Jon, Do a Search for MIFI on this FORUM and you will find a very good review by EVDO.

Similar thing happened to me today. Getting ready to leave Albuquerque this morning and started to raise the coach to hitch up. First sounded like the jacks were binding then the gears started to slip.:confused: Could not raise anymore so we began raising manually then the entire motor...

Mine is exactly the same and it easily slid back in place. I put a drop of all purpose glue on the bottom to keep it in place.

Any recommendations for a park in the Vero Beach area? Plan to be there next week for a few days, and don't see much in the camping guides.

ErnieD In addition to redoing the silicone bead where the frame meets fiberglass I siliconed each screw head in the frame, that finally stopped all of my leaking.
