We are using our system for the second year and love it but recently we have been losing the signal from two wheels. The signal is lost then when I remove the sending unit and replace it th esignal comes back and sometimes it comes back on its own. Does this mean I need new batteries in those...

We are planning a side trip to the flea market in Canton Tx and would like to hear about any experiences anyone has had with campgrounds in the area. Thanks

No, they are not the same. You can find liquid water softner at grocery stores and usually mad by Calgon. When you find it get several bottles. All stores do not carry it. Also try hardware stores. Good luck

Happy Birthday Roger And Deb

Thanks for the help. I had seen the new latches but could find no source. Just more proof of the value of the forum. Roger

I have heard about a new type of latch for the mirrored sliding doors but can find no source or name. Has anyone replaced their old ones with this new type and if so, where were they purchased? Thanks Roger

Where is the park located JP?

It might be in the auto transfer switch. The switch switches power from shore power to generator. You could have a short if it is wired wrong or you have a defective switch. It is located between the main panel and the gen. with the shore power also entering the switch. It is pretty easy to...

I didn't mean to be so defensive but a lot of people have very little info. concerning the mfg. of the diesel engine. The test procedures have been developed over many years and have proven that the diesel is ready to run when it leaves the plant. All componets are heat treated and tempered as...

The brief run in at the factory is not to just catch catastrophic failures! They are checked for oil consumption and fail if the rings don't seat, fuel consumption is checked, power within a certain percentage of advertised power is checked and limited by federal specs, oil,fuel and water temp...

New engines off of the assembly line (diesel) are brought up to temp. with hot water in a test cell and then put under load within 3-4 minutes with a dyno. They are all run under full load in very short order. All truck engines at Caterpillar are tested this way. Don't baby them, they are made...

A bad seal could also be the culprit. A small leak past a seal would allow pressure to drop under load which in turn would provide less pressure to hold the discs tight resulting in slipping under load. Just had one rebuilt to the tune of 2600 dollars. They found a non-cleanup in a seal bore...

When you say not effected by weather my wife thinks that means no rain fade. Is that what you are saying?

I have put it in all truck and trailer tires and see zero diff.. The pressure still goes up when warm. I don't know about life of the tires and won't for a long time. I hope.

We have used them for years and wouldn't be without them. The onboard compressor is also a nice addition

How do you winterize without using a lot of antifreeze or disconnecting the tank?

We plan to be there Wed. and Thursday if all goes well. We will be at the Hillsborugh State Park. There is one Mt. Rushmore here. Deb is a little under the weather right now but we hope to be healed by Wednesday. Roger and Deb

Tampa rv show Anyone planning on attending the Tampa RV Show? If so,maybe we could get together at the show for a mini rally

We have used the tripod for years but just installed the J T Strongarm stabilizers and have decided to give the tripod away. the difference is amazing

maybe a small rally? We plan on the first two days of the rally. Roger

Right, I just didn't explain very well

The total allowed weight of a dually is reduced from a single wheel by the weight of the additional wheels and tires so in reality the allowed load is reduced. The air bags will shift the weight to the trailer by a small amount by raising the front end of the trailer if the truck is sitting...

I have one sensor on the unit that keeps dropping the signal. If I take it off and put it back on,it works for awhile. I have used the pressure pro system less than 3 months and take them off when not traveling. could anyone tell if this is a battery already or possibly something I can do to...

09 Pinehurst Never stop at a Heartland dealer for repairs during new produuct intro.. We stopped to have the stove repaired and are now dealing on a new Pinehurst!

We just added the JT strong arm stabilizers and consider them a marked improvement over the tripod which we have been using for years. A little mor expensive but well worth the money and you dont have to load them up and store for travel. They are attached to the unit. Roger

Found the problem-there was no fuse in the truck for the batteries to be charged. Ther is supposed to be a 40 amp fuse for trailer batteries. A hint from Andy's Rv repair in Decatur Alabama. Everything seems to operational now. Thanks for the suggestions Roger

charging problem Anyone have a problem with the batteries staying charged while on the road? We were running the furnace to prevent freezing in the rv and the batteries discharged. I thought the unit charged off of the truck while on the road?

Here is one I have not seen on the forum. After traveling a couple of hundred miles yesterday we found that our stove and oven had drop into the drawer area beneath the oven. looks like the granite around the stove was glued to the granite counter top and that was all that was holding the whole...

They don't make an 8 ft bed dually??

Yes, I just turned it up a little. Made the flame about 3/4-1 inch long

We pull the Mt.Rushmore with a dodge cummins 2500 heavy duty which is really more like a 3500 with only two rear tires. Just put new tires on at 65000 miles and have had no problems. We run the 10 ply michelen tires. Still had tread but figured 4years old was a reason to change. We do use rear...

I had to adjust mine because the pilot was too low. Take the top off of the stove and look for the pilot gas tube coming off of the control. You should see a small set screw to adjust the pilot.

We had the same problem on our 05 Mt. Rushmore and it would not happen while trying to show the dealer. We also had a leak that they tried to fix a couple of times without success. While at the 06 rally in Indiana,Lippert replaced the pump due to the leak. This fixed all problems. The old pump...

Check the filter ahead of the pump. It is a small clear bulb located at the intake side of the pump Roger

luv shack Sorry about the accident. Sounds like things are on track for a quick repair. We had to have a cap replaced 5-6 years ago and had to wait several weeks for the new one. Sounds like Heartland is coming to the rescue in good time. If you are In Illinois and near Peoria give us a shout...

farmer A cocky U.S. Department of Agriculture representative stopped at a farm and talked with an old farmer. He told the farmer, "I need to inspect your farm." The old farmer said, "OK, but don't go in that field right over yonder." The Agriculture representative said, "Mister, I have...

I think that I am going to try the Diesel Kleen. It seems to be readily available everywhere and I have an 03 which was not designed for low sulphur. Thanks for the input

Has ant one ever used Diesel Kleen as an addative and if so, did you see any benefits? Roger

We leave our gen. in the truck but wired in an auto disconnect at the converter and then ran a wire from the front of the 5th wheel to the generator so we can have power to the unit while traveling so it is nice and cool when we arrive. It also allows you to set the gen. on the ground but a few...

Your manufacturer has the real scoop. Pay attention to the recomendation and go a little sooner (like 10-20percent ). All engines are not the same, even horse power on the same block can change oil degradation rates. Injectors,rings ,pistons,liner or block hone patterns etc. all effect this...
