How about other 12V stuff like furnace, pump, slides, etc?

I didn’t contact them. I’m sure they would have replaced the parts, but I feel safer with my metal solution.

We have the steps, and the railing. Very good product, and a huge improvement over the originals. We had one problem in that the plastic brackets which attach the handrail to the RV body are not durable. Both brackets failed (at the screw-holes) soon after installation. I have fashioned...

The fireplace in our BigCountry has failed. What is the procedure for removal? Do I pry away the decorative frame?

We have a 2011 Big Country. It is fitted mostly with PEX, but behind the “valve panel” and around the water heater they got cheap and lazy and substituted flexible 1/2” flexible hose (like the winterizing suction hose), still using PEX crimp clamps and weak plastic fittings. After numerous...

Mine does not have those valves. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

We have a grey 2011 Big Country with the infamous end cap chalking problem. (If you have it, you know of where I speak.) Over the past years I have treated it regularly with a combination of Meguires "One Step Compound 67" and their "Flagship Marine Wax". This brings back a "reasonable"...

Here is a photo of my switch panel area. (Click the image for a larger view) The panel is a sheet of 1/4" plywood held captive on all four sides by 1x3 wood framing. The panel is behind that framing as illustrated by the slip of paper that I have inserted behind the framing on the lower...

Our 2011 Big Country (4 slideouts) has a hydraulic system to deploy/retract the slides. There are no individual controls per slide, just a single control to activate the pump. So, for example, when you deploy the slides there is pressure applied to all slide rams, and the slides deploy in...

Thanks, Dan.

Is it possible to obtain a schematic or wiring diagram for our rigs? I had an electrical problem on our BC which did not allow us to use the wall switch to extend/retract the slides. (We could control the slides using the remote dongle, or from the switch near the hydraulic pump.) Pulled the...

Re: Lippert remote control "central box" Yes, I hoped that might be a solution, and I unscrewed every switch/control, but each has only a small hole. None of the holes are large enough to do more than jiggle some wires around. They don't reveal the relay board to view. Plan now is...

Lippert remote control "central box" I now know where it is. Exercising the remote and holding an ear to the wall I can hear relay clicks in the space behind the switch cluster area. There is NO removable access panel here. My switch for the slides is inoperative (I can still...

We have a 2011 BC 3510RL with the Lippert remote control "dongle" (controls landing gear, awnings, slideouts, etc.) Where is the central box/board (I assume it has a batch of relays on it) hidden in our rig? I opened the "back wall" in the pass-though area and couldn't find it there. Some...

Sidewall 1 steel ply, tread 4 steel plies. You can see them next fall on site 323 at Canyon Vistas!
