I had an ATS failure this morning at 5 am. I have yet to take the PD52 lid of to see how bad it was, but it was smoking heavily and I caught it within moments of losing the heatpump. I have a 2013 Bighorn 3610RE. More later. This is an old post have there been any reports like this or recalls?

I am looking for the same replacement. Did you find one to order or did you get it from Heartland? If so did you use customer service number. Do it yourself or hire someone? I will attempt, but just had hip replacement surgery 10 days ago and would need tools and fittings etc, Thanks. Brad

Has anyone ever replaced the water line from sink (on my 3610RE Bighorn) out to the connection behind the refrigerator? I wonder if there is a part number or a length that I can find. I think I may have to tape the new one to the old and pull it through and then make the connections. I drained...

Thank you. I have told the owners that I want the space and am waiting to hear back

Thank you. I will watch closely and heat water with gas

Thank you. I will try to secure the site first thing tomorrow.

Hi everybody, I was wondering if a Feb, Mar, Apr stay in north eastern Colorado would be possible on a 30 service. Since I wont be running air I thought maybe I could swing it. I have a job there during that time and want to stay as close as possible. 30 amp service is all that is available...

Just looked at your link to the Amish cooling Units. I don't have the business address or I would have ordered on with the fans and everything and just took a chance on self installation. How hard could it be?........ Thanks again. Still looking at Dometic replacement. Brad

Thank you Dan. You always come through and I so appreciate it. I agree it sounds expensive, but i am in the Bakken oil boom and am just outside Williston. There is a repair facility in Williston that will not do warranty work. There is a Mobile repair guy that I have been working with who will...

I have the dreaded dead unit. No cooling at all. A mobile repair guy checked and it's the cooling unit. He said the fix is around $4000 and that is the price of a new unit (no labor). He said that this 1210IM has been discontinued. AND he didn't know if the new Dometic unit (that he suggested I...

Re: mobile service Thanks Trace. It seems it's always something, but glad I made it through two really brutal cold snaps. Will be calling tomorrow. I read one blog that said the sail switch might be stuck. Unfortunately I didn't have the right tools with me before it got dark.

Re: mobile service Thanks Bill. I found a mobile guy on the Suburban web site and wanted to try and cross reference as HL was closed tonight. Will call tomorrow.

Does Heartland have a directory for certified mobile RV mechanics? Now my furnace quit. Worked like a champ to -24 degrees last week.

Thanks Gallants. Something to consider. I had not thought of doing anything on the exterior. Still leaning toward a mod on the isolation box and then caulking everything air tight again. Brad

Thanks Duane, I will look on the net for auto start stuff. Brad

Thanks PUG. I started tonight. I took out the mounting frame as it was obviously in the wrong location. I tried to bolt up the genny. What a pain. The holes did not match. I have to make one end oblong to fit genny mounting bolts (about a 3/8" short end to end. Once that fits I can layout for...

It's actually the frame and yes I could but it won't give me all the room I need. I think I need to cut the wall of the isolation box and bend it enough to achieve the room I need. Then bend it back and re-seal it with silicone. It's all a mystery as to how the dimensions aren't right. Happy...

Thanks Dane. That is on the list for tomorrow.

I am sure not the corner to corner measurement is 4 inches longer than the width of the opening and it is deep enough front to back on the genny to prevent me from spinning it into place. I think I may be able to make it fit if I butcher the edge of the wall (of the box) and bend it out of the...

Finally bought my Onan 5500 HGJAB and unboxed it. 33 1/2" versus the 32" hole. It looks as if I need to modify the box or disassemble the front door to get it in. Frustrated and scared to measure the bolt pattern as I can't see how to get the bolts in anyway. Anyone have this dillema...

Thanks Dane. I added a second battery last Monday. Am on the prowl for an Onan 5500. There are 3 now here in this park that have said they want to have one installed. The warehouse manager on this project has found someone in Montana willing to travel to sell and install this genny. We are...

OK to be a little more specific, are there other generator brands that are compatible with the harness and wiring that my Bighorn has. Not that I am wanting another brand, but I would like to look at choices to try and optimize cost, fuel efficiency and ease of installation. I am in a place...

Thanks everyone. Its 2 am and 0 degrees out and the electricity just went off an hour ago. I had gotten my truck filled prior to the first outage earlier this evening so I just had to fire up and hook up jumpers. There are about 70-80 campers in this man camp. I hooe tgey are all prepared. Now...

I had my Bighorn prepped for a generator. Does anyone know what generator comes when it is factory installed? I want propane and now that it is getting cold.... I hear that the electricity is sometimes spotty here in Tioga, ND. Also I see there is another Bighorn and a new Big Country in the...

Re: geting tv signal to second tv from one dish receiver I finally had time and parts. Hdmi from 211 to tv. Coax out of 211. I installed a short coax and the splitter between cable barrel and coax to tv. If I turn off booster I have Dish in bedroom. On I have local channels. Thank you so much

You all have been great on my questions. Thank you all. I have a couple random questions that I hope you might share your thoughts on. Heatpumps. I have heard a ton of stuff from 'I never use the heater only the heat pump' to you can't use the heatpump if it's below 40 degrees? what is the...

In case anyone wondered, I removed the shroud and the pin box is labelled 1621 so I guess the Goosebox will fit. The directions might tell me that I have to drill holes, but it should work. I am excited.

Thanks LW, I called the folks who make the Goose Box and they said I have to look at the number on the wings to know if they fit. 1621 seems to be the most used by Lippert. If that is the case it sounded like there would be no mods. If I only need to drill a couple of holes that wouldn't be a...

Thanks Jim. I had assumed the wings were the channels that the pin box bolt to. I was hoping to find the info I needed to be sure the Reese Goose Box would bolt up without having to take off the fiberglass shroud that covers my OEM pin box, confirm, and order the new pinbox. With my work and...

So from this I gather that the leaking is very near where the 1/4 inch line connects to the Solenoid. The solenoid must be on the other side of what looks like a garden hose connector. I initially did not find water below that, but it was wet soon after the discovery. Never saw any sign of...

Where do I find the Lippert wing # to see what pin boxes might be adaptable on my Bighorn 3610re. I am interested in the Reese Goose Box Brad

Thanks. I still can't tell from where the water came. I thought it was from above, but like I said I can't see where the line hooks to the ice maker. So you were in Gillette. I almost came over to meet some people. I was only home a few days and there just wasn't enough time. Brad

when my ice maker or supply line started leaking I got lucky got it shut down immediately with the auto shut off arm in the refer. it took me a day to find the supply line valve, but I found it. I didn't get any responses as to how to get to where the supply line hooks into the ice maker itself...

Scott, first of all thank you for your service. Second bummer on the problems you are having. I figure even though I spent the money for new, there would be some time spent chasing bugs. Good luck. Brad

Re: geting tv signal to second tv from one dish receiver Thanks Dave. You are correct. I do not need to have different channels in the two tv's. The Tailgater doesn't support more than one anyway. I worked this weekend, so I will hit a DIY store next weekend for the diplexermabob. Brad

Thanks Julie!

Re: geting tv signal to second tv from one dish receiver I'm just not able to follow. The cable in living room goes directly to tv. Can I add a diplexer or something and connect the tv out on dish receiver into the cable/antenna coax and back feed that way to get back to the bedroom? Thanks Brad

Thank you both. I just worked on the Export Grain Terminal in Longview Washington on the Columbia and was there for 8 months in 2010 and 11. Beautiful country and Portland was fun. I am looking forward to meeting you and Amy too. Thanks Dave. Brad

Thank you all for all the feed back. I am now sure I missed the fact that there was some water in the fresh water tank when shipped. Everything checks out no problems. The big red switch is still a mystery, but must be the tank heating pads. The ice maker water leak is probably from vibration...

I have spent some time looking through Q&A's on satellite stuff. I have a Tailgater and a '13 Big Horn 3610RE. There are satellite coax input (2) for living room and bedroom. I can only have one receiver that supports 1 TV. With the cabling in place, can I jumper somewhere to get the signal from...
