    Bighorn problems. ELECTRICAL PROB. FOUND!

    Re: Bighorn problems. I had the same thing happen to me this spring and it could have been tragic as I have a pacemaker. It ended up being the pedestal. My surgeguard said the power was clean so do NOT rely on that. I took the good advice I got here and bought a tester and it will not happen...

    Cabinet doors splitting.

    I have a 2011 Bighorn 3185 and all the doors above the bed split open. I am no cabinet maker by any means but I took them down and inspected them and there was no glue in the frame joints at all.
