Our BH3670 is on a semi permanent site at an RV resort on Lake Havasu AZ. Our BH did not have a 2nd unit in the bedroom. Our site is only 30amps. So, second roof unit in the bedroom was not an option. Did NOT want to install an ugly window unit. Went to Home Depot, purchased a free standing...

Did Heartland stop making the Bighorn 3670? If so, when and why?

Has Heartland stopped making the BH3670? If so, when and why?

Re: A message for prospective Heartland RV owners. As Cookie noted, are those repeated holes caused by the heat from the smoked LED? If so, it appears the damage was done when the awning was rolled up. I am not familiar with this system. Can the lights be turned on when in the rolled up...

If jacks are placed beneath a slide, loss of tire inflation can cause severe damage to the slide rams and associated equip. Slides are made to support the weight and should not sag. Believe most manufacturers do not recommend jacks under slides.

Our 08' BH3670 came with a table between the recliners. It is extremely useful. Can't imagine Heartland didn't realize that. Seems like a very odd way for Heartland to try to reduce the cost of their very fine product.

We have an 08 BH 3670. Bought it in 2010 and saved an enormous amt of $. We love the floor plan and all the storage. We sometimes stay in it for months at a time. We find it ideal for the 2 of us and our very large dog. When our grandsons visit for weeks at a time there is still plenty of room...

I normally end up learning a lot from this Forum. So far from this particular post I've learned: 1) At the delivery PDI the dealer said some outside panels needed to be replaced 2) Dealer replaced those panels & the caulking was never correct - still leaks That's it. That's all that I've...

I've mentioned this one before. Determine the location of the "vacuum breaker check valve" on the black water jet system. If it is encased withing a wall, have them relocate it. And not above electrical units which may be below it in the basement area.

Good advice on the relief valve etc. before removing the rod. If you already have the rod out and it shows some depletion, renewing the anode rod is very cheap maintenance. The rod is suppose to erode - least noble metal. IOW - Let the water eat up the rod and not the tank & fittings.

Toughest problem we've had with our 08' BH3670 was the vacuum breaker check valve on the jet line of the black tank. This valve was located within the wall behind the toilet. Completely encased within the wall and not visible. What was visible was water flowing from under the wall and out onto...

Really worth watching. They are amazing.

Well, after "gentle" efforts with a Dremel and then the attempted use of snap ring pliers - No Joy. Dis-similar metals etc, seem to have the remnants of the male connection pretty well melted within the "City Water" connection. Ordered a new Fresh Water Fill / City water connection assembly...

John - Yes, this will be my first effort once we return to our BH. For the time being, just switched to FW Tank/12v pump. Thought a slight grove or score from the Dremel may give the needle nose pliers a little something to twist against. These have all been good suggestions and I thank...

Yep, I was just thinking about trying this with a Dremel. Unfortunately, none of the snapped off male hose fitting is protruding beyond the female CW connection. So, I would be unable to grab and smash the male fitting with needle nose pliers, as previously suggested.

Bill - Thanks, slotting the inside of the broken male hose fitting may be worth a try. But, the screen strainer of the BH City Water Connection somewhat impedes work in that area. Although, it may not take much to just create a slot in the old hose fitting. Thanks again. - Steve

The male threaded end of our city water hose has broken off in our City Water Connection. And, we are unable to remove this section broken within the BH fitting. Appears CW connection shares the same housing as "Potable Water Tank Fill". So, must we replace this double purpose part in order to...

We moved out of our 30' TT and into our BH3670. Dealer delivered the BH and picked up the 30'TT (trade in) at our site on the lake. That required us to strip the 30 footer of all our belongings, stack them at our site, and be ready to load it all back into the new BH when it arrived. All went...

Re: No 12 Volt Power Last year had no 12v when park AC went down. Found the lug on the ground wire running from the batt. at the 12v buss had become loose. Replaced the lug. All was fine. Something you just don't check when running on shore power for lengths of time.

The Off/On "Rocker Switch" on the control panel of the Fireplace in our 08 BH3670 will not go to the Off position. Can this rocker switch be simply "popped out" from the front of the unit and replaced, or must the entire Fireplace assembly be removed and the switch accessed from the rear? I...

My parents had the dark green, heavy canvas, "waterproof?" tent that was cold in the winter and hot as heck in the summer. We cooked on an open fire and later years a USFS fire pit and grill. Camp chairs were wood and canvas (seemed to break a lot). Taking "baths" under an ice cold faucet...

Beautiful rig and family. Glad you had a Happy Thanksgiving. Most of all, Thank You for your Service.

We use our BH3670 for about a month, then gone a month, then back etc. We were also getting that rotten egg smell upon each return. I now drain the water heater and flush it out with the wand upon each departure. No more smell. If the rod appears it is beginning to waste away, I replace it...

We are well into our second year enjoying our 3670. We spend almost 6 months a year in it, in 30 day segments. With almost no exceptions, it has been great. It is currently on a permanent site on the Colorado River/Lake Havasu area. We see intense summer temps and some cool winter periods. It...

There have been many good observations on this extremely serious situation. But, I'm really not sure that a wasted water heater anode rod could actually cause electrical shock. I don't believe these anodes have any electrical connection. They are merely composed of "less noble" (sacrificial...

Refrigerator - You've mentioned all the correct steps to improve the performance. Believe you will be very happy with the results. After taking each step you mentioned, the frig in our BH3670 is now staying at 38 degrees in the intense AZ desert summer heat and it is also on the sunny side.

Re: Refridgerator Our 3670 is on site in the CA/AZ desert. We struggled for a while and then followed a number of excellent points from this forum. Summer temps are usually well into the 100's. Our non double door, w/o ice maker refrig stays in the mid 30's and it is in a slide on the "sunny...

As "Barney Fife" stated in his previous post, "It is the hidden things that can bite you". We love our BH 3670 and are fortunate to spend many months a year in it. I don't mean to "beat a dead horse", but when someone asks what they should look for when buying a used BH, I feel the previous...

We purchased a previously owned 08' BH two years ago. Our non-BH dealer performed a VERY good PDI. The ONLY item with which we've had problems, and they were BIG, was the VBCV (vacuum breaker check valve) which Heartland factory installed, sight unseen, within the bathroom wall! ! I truly...

Our BH 3670 does great in the very hot and some pretty cool temps. Some planning and fore thought helps. RoadJunkie stated it all very well.

We have Direct TV HD (Los Angeles feed & box) with DVR in the living rm. Just ran a new coax from the new multi LNB dish to the receiver/dvr in the ent. center. Didn't even mess with the factory installed coax/splitters etc. In the bedroom we have another TV (non HD DVR but with Phoenix AZ...

Summer like temps of 90-107 have already arrived here in the Ca/Az desert where our BH3670 is located. Followed Bill's excellent advise on the sheet metal baffles to properly route the air. Our fridge is now staying at 35-40 degrees, and it is located on the "sunny side" of our BH. I had...

We got our "new" 2008 3670RL last year. It also has the Jensen. Haven't had the "mysterious On" situation. Once we got everything dialed in, Surround Sound through the Coby sound system and up graded the Sat reception to HD, we have found it to be a very nice tv. Any chance a DVR could be...

Had a buddy who drove very large rigs in the military. He taught me to "live in" the mirrors. He would say not just in turns and when positioning, but even on the interstate. And it works. . .

Door screen and expanding insulation foam worked great for us. Kept the dirt and rodents out.

Thanks to all for the input. Will check the status of all fittings in the area, asap.

Have recently noticed that the plastic cover for the battery on our BH3670 has hydraulic fluid leaked upon it when we open that compartment. Although we have not used or cycled our slides. Our BH remains on site full time with all slides extended. Does pressure remain on this hydraulic system...

While driving from Vegas to Lake Havasu today we saw no less than 8 Bighorns traveling individually in the opposite direction. Was there a Rally in the area?

In our BH3670 the refrigerator is in the slide making the proper flow of air more difficult. Bill (wdk450) "linked" you to the forum thread I used. I followed the sketch posted by Bill and the photos posted by wesley1963. Also as recommended, I filled the open void areas at the sides and top...

I entirely agree. The air MUST flow up, over and thru the fins and tubes located on the uppermost portion of the Dometic. The "as built" configuration allows the air to escape at the base of the upper vent cover prior to passing thru the tubes and fins above. I followed the recommended...
