We too have water in the underbelly with no apparent water inside the RV. No wet walls, ceiling or rugs. Additionally to having lots of water running out from the underbelly, I took the wall out from the basement and looked at the top of the black tank. There was fresh water sitting on top of...

Thought all you BigHorn owners might be interested in this. Our electric bedroom slide quit working. A mobile repair service was called. What they found was that all the wiring for the bedroom to include the slide, the electrical outlets and the overhead reading lights was laying on the floor...

Slide out continuation Our electric bedroom slide would not come out. I hooked the motor to the drill and got the slide partially out and then could bring the slide in and out with the switch. I brought it PARTIALLY in and out about five times and it worked fine. However, as soon as the...

Upon arriving at the campground today our bedroom electric slide would not come out on our Bighorn. I looked in the fuse box and it said that fuse 11 was for the bedroom slide AND the basement light. Sure enough, the basement light is also not working. The fuse appears to be good and I did...

I sprayed mine with Totally Awesome from the Dollar Store, and the yellow started running off. After a good wipe with a rag, is white again.

Where do you get these "skis"?

We stayed there years ago and loved the place.

We had this problem with the black tank. It overfilled and flowed onto the top of the tank. Caught it before it got off the top of the tank thank goodness. However, none of your tanks should be leaking even if you do back the grey into the shower. If the seal is tight between the tank and...

We have the same issue, however, I notice the dents seem to get less the longer the slide out stays out. Have been in this location about 2 months and almost completely gone. We do have a few scuffs that I can see if I look at the floor in a certain lighting situation. Not near as bad as all...

Our Norcold refrigerator keeps getting colder and colder even when set on 1. It has frozen just about everything. Has anyone had this problem and what was the fix?

I have read lots of posts about this popping noise. Our Bighorn in 7 months old and we hear this noise during temperature changes. Has anyone on this forum had a fix done and did it work? If so, we may go ahead and contact Lippertt now while still under warranty.

We had dual pane on our previous Bighorn. Did not get them this time. We have not noticed any difference in noise or cold but we do not RV in weather much below freezing and only then for brief periods in the early AM. I was concerned about condensation but so far (7 months now) we have had...

Last night we noticed an unpleasant odor in the RV. This AM it was much worse. We figured out it was coming from the basement. After removing the basement wall we located very stinky water sitting on top of the black tank. The water had accumulated around where the toilet pipe enters the...

Our 3685 leaves an indentation also. Usually goes away after the slide it out a while. HOWEVER, we do see some scuffing on the floor. I was wondering about putting a rug there to let the slide roll up on it but not sure. Anyone try that?

Our screws are visible and are very tight. This is a squeak when we stop out. I do not see a large amount of flex although with this noise I am sure there is some.

Our Bighorn is 7 months old. We have started to hear a flexing sound when we get out of the shower. I can actually just walk around in the shower and hear a noise like there is give. Is this normal or should I be looking to see if there is a problem. We do not have a leak around the shower...

Our motion light quit working all together and it was a burned out blulb. I got on the website and printed out the manual to try to figure out the light. The On/Off/On method works. The light will blink blue in the day but the light will not come on by motion sensor during daylight hours...

We have had our 3685 for 8 months now. Love it. So roomy. Full timing for 6 years and this is our second Bighorn. I think you will be pleased.

If you run the jacks up a little too long after they are retracted the 30 amp fuse will blow. It is located by the battery and has a red cover over it. There is a small button you have to push which is on the side and it will reset the fuse. Hope this helps.

This morning the foot pedal on our Thetford Aqua Magic broke off. It appears a piece by the large spring cracked. Has anyone had this problem?

We have a 2013 Big Horn 3685. It has a Greystone fireplace under the TV. The glass is terribly dirty on the inside. I am trying to figure out how to get the glass out. I BELIEVE I have to remove the fake wood trim around the fireplace, but want to know if anyone has done this before I pull...

The only way to turn that light on and off on our Bighorn 3685 is with the remote. Weird but true!!

Re: toilet bowl filling up Ours went bad after about 3 years. Thank goodness we noticed this and it did not overfill during the night. Just get the part and the instructions on how to replace. We did it in about 30 minutes.

I will be happy to hear some replies on this one. We have the same issue. We use a squeegee on the doors and wipe them down but getting between the glass is an issue. I tried one of those sponge wedges on a stick used for painting and got some of the residue off but not all. I will keep...

This will be our 6th winter in the Phoenix area at a Roberts Resort called Pueblo El Mirage. Large sites, 18 hole championship golf course on the property, restaurant, pro shop, wonderful activities to include line dancing, ceramics, stained and fused glass classes, wood shop, cards, aerobics...

We purchased our Big Horn from them about 3 months ago. You will pick it up at Great Lakes RV (unless you want to pay for delivery) which is about 2 miles from the factory. We are full time. They took our 2008 in trade and allowed us to stay in their lot with water and electricity two nights...

As odd as this may seem, we poured Clorox down the shower, the bathroom sink and the kitchen sink and the smell went away. Our smell was not continual though. After numerous '"cloroxing" we never had the problem again.

We have just suffered through Tropical Storm Debby here in Florida. We have a 3 month old Big Horn 3685 and all three of the large sliding windows leaked into the inside tracks. The only way I could stop the problem was to tilt the RV back just a little. Then everything stayed completely dry...

We have had our 3685 for two months now. We are really enjoying it. We worked with RV Capital Wholesalers in Elkhart and were able to talk to the factory and make a few changes. We put barrel cabinets under both sides of the kitchen counter, added bedside shelves and redesigned the closet to...

Our level up system gave us a level readout. However, after being in this location for a day, the left side seems to be low. The doors all want to swing that way. Can I do another level up process with the slides out?

I would suggest you call Heartland Customer Service. We met a guy at the Elkhart Campground who had an appointment with Heartland Factory Service Dept due to the same problem. He said they fixed his for free as a manufacturing problem. Was leaking at the edge of the overhang. I believe this...

We purchased our RV there and had a few things that needed attention. While they were very prompt in responding, I would agree they were lacking in ability. Our door was so hard to open, the wife could not open it at all. After three attempts, I ended up fixing it myself when we left and were...

We are having the same problem. Have decided that it was cut just a tab too short (top to bottom) allowing it to pop out whenever you close the door. We are going to try working on that when we have time.

We purchased our new 3685 Bighorn in April from RV Capital in Elkhart. They took our trade and gave us a decent price for it. We stayed in their lot for two days and moved everything from old RV to new one. Found a few things that needed attention and they immediately took are of it. We then...

We opted out of the bedroom TV and bought a 22 inch at Walmart and a mount for 1/2 the price. The 32 inch is so big for that bedroom. The wall is prepped to install the mount and we had no problem at all.

We ordered our new Big Horn from RVCapitalWholesalers on the interenet. They are associated with Great Lakes RV in Elkhart. Great Lakes got us directly in touch with the Heartland factory and we were able to discuss additional options we wanted added on our RV not listed in the brochure. I...

Take a stroll along the river from Bicentinneal Park and Island Park. There is a nice lake across the street from Elkhart Campground. Also the Pumpkinvie bike trail is wonderful for a day of biking. About 28 miles from Elkhart is a fabulous state park, Potato Creek. Wonderful biking, hiking...

Re: ATF: Bighorn - Air Conditioning This is not a low profile Penguin. It looks exactly like the one in the living room.

We have dual air with the second air being a 13.5 BTU Low Profile. It appears that this is a deducted system. Do both this bedroom and the living AC use the same duct system? In other words, if I turn on the bedroom AC is it cooling the living room also and vice versa?

We have a brand new (1 week) Big Horn. When we take a shower we have to have the hot water knob all the way on and the cold water barely on. Is this normal. It is like too much cold is coming into the system. Seems that they should be equal to have a good temperature for a shower. Any...
