Westxsrt1o, it was fixed per Jim Finners instructons at Heartland. Just asking the question. As you can see there has been many issues with the dam and leaking slides for all HL brands, just read Tmcran's post. Its just crazy bad design.

OK, pulled the seals and sure enough the dam has fallen off. It only had one screw installed in it. Per the question from tncram, yes it is in the corner. Pulled the moulding off and pulled down the plack protective covering and found the floor is soaked full of water and will have toe be...

I purchased the Sundance 2900MK and have had problems with the bedroom slide pretty much right after I purchased it. I have contacted the factory about the water entering the slide and they told me the dam was not sealed as it should have been and how to repair it. Last week we identified water...

Thanks Cookie, for the info. No I will be using the type of chemical that is supposed to be used. I did not know the actual name of the product.

OK, just we have an 09 Sundance 2900MK, found out the bedroom slide is leaking. It is leaking toward the closet. Sprayed bunches of water around the window, nothing. Sprayed toward the rubber seal and found that is where the water is coming in. The seals are very plyable and roll and in and out...

I just wanted to let everyone know that Tim Meade the Sales Manager at Flair Interiors, has contacted me about the situation with our inflatable mattress. He and I have worked out the details on my issue. Therefore I will not be purchasing another brand of inflatable mattress. Thank you Tim and...

We have an inflatable mattress in out Sundance 2900MK. We are in the need of a replacement mattress since the original and the replacement mattress will not hold air. I have contacted Flair Interiors in regards on how to repair our current mattress since the leak is coming from a crease for the...

OK, several of my clearance lights have burned out and when I go to pull them out the base stays in the socket and the bulb pulls out. That should not be a problem to remove the base. My question is, what replacement bulb numbers are used in the clearance lights.

Check the shower surround for leaks before you leave the dealer. Spray water all around the bottom edge and the door.

Well, just de-winterized the Sundance and getting ready to pull it to the local campground for this years first camping trip. It is suppose to be in the high 60's to low 70's for the weekend. :o How man others are heading out for the weekend too?

Duramax1, I have the MIFI and the $40.00 Unlimited VM plan as you and I received the same email. This is beginning to get crazy. Bait and Switch for sure.

Wow, this could have been worse than it was. :( http://www2.scnow.com/news/2011/jan/18/15/officials-responding-plane-crash-north-myrtle-beac-ar-1356506/

Welcome to HD and over the air reception. This is a common problem/complaint, you may want to make sure you booster is on. Weather, distance from transmitting antenna are some of the causes for you problem.

Thanks, now I have to look at some of the aps mentioned to see if they will work for our summer planning.

What I Pod or I Phone aps are you all using out there for camping or traveling? I am trying to find an Ap for itinerary planning and keeping a log of where we stayed, date, what we did while camping etc. Has anyone see such an AP? Jim

As a slight reminder too, the valves on both tanks have to be open for it to automatically draw from the other side.

Randy, we have the same camper as you and the wife. We have the same things going on as you described. We have had no problems with rain while traveling. I would not worry to much about it unless you have water coming in while traveling.

The Jones family had a wonderful time and hope to see everyone again in the future.

The Jones family should be there around 5:00. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

I have a Sundance 2900MK with the aluminum wheels and my spare is just a steel wheel. I am pretty sure you could order one if you wanted it.

We have a Sundance 2900MK and the rear window will not open. I pull the handle out and try and slide to window and it won't budge. Any suggestions on what I can do to get it to free up so it can be opened? Don't want to break anything.:cool: Jim

OK, I know proper inflation is the life of a tire be it on a truck, camper or whatever. Last weekend I have had 3 friends experience blowouts on their campers. All but one was running Carlisle tires. Our conversation went from tire seperation to proper inflation. The question is, if the Max...

Yes, big problem!!!

Thanks everyone, I am working on it as the weather allows. It is really hot here during the day and evening hours, so I have suspended work until the temsp drop just a little. I am with another poster here, I can't believe the frames are power coated and the coating comes off so easy. Looks...

Tom , thanks for the advice. I am currently scraping, sanding and brushing on the Rustoleum as you indicated in your post. I am more worried about the integrity of the chassis and welds.

tmcran, you may want to pull the bottom if you can. That has been one of my biggest chores is removing the screws that hold up the cover, they are rusted too. jmgratz, I live in NC and do not have rust on my tow vehicle. We do not pull the trailer in snowy or icey weather at it takes the state...

I am not bashing by no means, I am just wondering if I have to worry about this rust issue eating through the I beams and causing significant problems down the road especially around the suspension parts. <O:p></O:p> What would you all do with a situation like this and maybe Heartland will...

Rust-Oleum rust converter, I have seen this at Lowes and HD but was not sure if it would work, I may give this a try, I guess it can't hurt. I have also seen the Rust-Oleum rust Hammered paint and wondered if that was an option too.

Ok, we have had frame rust on the 2900MK since we purchased it back in 2008. Want to take care of the problem once and for all. What products do you all recommend to use? Easy to apply and little surface preperation.

Yesterday, I was preparing to leave the campground and had just finished doing the dump thing I went into the camper and turned on the pump to flush toilet chemicals and wash my hand. I notice the pump did not cut off but still had water flow to both the sink and toilet. Once I went back out...

Don't know much about The Hayes G2 but I currently upgraded to the P3 and really like it. I do not fully understand all of the boost settings and other functions but it will come in time.

Well, yesterday we had a very drastic situation to say the least. One of the bars that pushes out the kitchen slide had a wield brake as the wife was pulling in the slide. It took 4 of us to get it back in so things would not be damaged. Once it was back in the camper it was secure. Once the...

We just came back from PA yesterday and passed Candy Hill campground outside of Winchester VA. We have never camped there but have seen it grow for several years now. Here is the web address http://www.candyhill.com/ . The campground is located on route 37 off of I 81.

Thanks Dale, point well taken. I am inquiring about one that is in the For Sale area of this Forum.

Well here is the issue? Hooked the 5th wheel to the truck yesterday, heading to the campground. Connected the electrical cable to the truck and noticed when I hit the brakes there was no activation of the trailer brakes. Reconnected the electrical cable and still nothing. Pushed on the emergency...

Thanks Tom and Jim found one at Home Depot on the way to the campground. Installed it and it worked perfectly. I actually found the one that has the slide pin all for under $5.00.

Thanks guys. This will make my terk to Lowes a little less stressful to say the least. Sometimes it is better to have a picture.

Thanks Tom, does it fit onto the shower hose or at the outlet at the faucet controls? Is there anyway you could post a picture of the device so I would know what I am looking for?

OK, we replaced our shower head and the replacement has no button to cut off the water. Is there a inline device I can install to cut off the water instead of having it run during the whole shower? I looked at Lowes but was unable to find anything.:cool: I know you full timers are full of...

That is a great idea. We have things stored under the bed but no storage containers I am going to have to rethink storage.
