The refrigerator in my trailer quit working, no power to it at all. Also the living room AC does not work. Everything else is normal. All fuses and breakers check good. The trouble started with a low power situation. What can I check to troubleshoot the two specific problems? 2008 Big Country.

Ever Wonder? Where does the purple go when you drink grape Cool-ade?

Washing your fuel I'm not a diesel guru, but I'd guess as much as you've driven without problems you've gotten away with it. I would definitely check that sediment bowl though, and it would probably pay to change the fuel filter. Scary lesson though!

Spring Rally Hi, Ed Weidig here. I am planning to come down for the rally. Hopefully I won't have to cancel this time. Looking forward to meeting everyone. I am going to "The Rally" in Perry, GA in March too. Anyone else going to that one? Ed

Cajuns That was cool. One talented kid!

Actually not Two sixes in series will give more amp hours than two twelves in parallel. That's the reason most people go to them. Those four in a series/parallel configuration would give lots of boondocking time. Also would add a lot of weight.

Brake controller Most of us have Prodigy controllers. There are some other good brands out there. Don't skimp on the controller, your life depends on it.

Kyle, TX ExploreUSA I bought my Big Horn 3055RL from ExploreUSA in Kyle. In fact I bought three trailers there in just a little over a year. The first was a Trailmanor 2720. After one trip I decided my TV would handle more trailer so I said if they would give me the full price I paid for the...

Tools A 1/2" drive torque wrench with the proper size socket for your lug nuts. It pays to check them at 50 miles, 200 miles, and then before each trip. I check mine every other day or so when towing too. Most of the time you won't find any loose, but better safe than sorry. The 12V compressor...

April 18 - 21 there will be a Heartland Owner's Rally at Rayford Crossing just north of Houston. If any of you are still in the area, come join the fun. See the 2008 Rally thread.

Heartland dealers If you're coming down I-35 there's a decent dealer in Kyle, TX. Explore USA. They carry a pretty fair inventory. Can't swear they'll have the one you're looking for, but it could be worth a look. Ask for Tommy, tell him I sent you.

I pulled into Rayford Crossing RV Park at about 3:30 this afternoon. The first trailer I saw inside the park was a Big Horn 3055 like mine. Nobody around to talk to. Will check again in the AM. I cranked up the truck to go to dinner and immediately went into limp mode.:mad: I changed the fuel...

Lottery I almost won the lottery Saturday night. I came >ll< this close to buying a ticket!

Light I have the same problem in my 2006. I have fixed it a couple times, seems like a socket problem. Since I don't use those lights much I decided I could do without it until I get really ambitious. Doesn't look good in the near future! I don't know if I'm getting more patient, or just lazy.

Heater not working I'm having the same problem. My blower comes on, runs for about 15 or 20 seconds, fire never lights, blower turns off. It worked one day, not the next. The stove worked fine, didn't switch to gas for fridge or water heater to check that, but switched tanks anyway. (And I'm...
