    BC 3250 Slide out seals.

    Hi all. I have a Big Country 3250 and the 3 slide out seals are starting to fail. Can someone point me in the right direction to purchase replacement seals. Do they come from Heartland or another supplier. The top seals appear to have a larger seal lip compared to the side ones. Do they come as...

    Slide out floor rotten

    That looks like a good fix if you get to the problem early enough. Unfortunately I bought this trailer a few months ago and the damage has been done. There is a physical hole thru the ply and a lot of swelling. Interestingly the leading edges of both slide outs have an additional plastic L...

    Slide out floor rotten

    Not in my case. It is the water running the sides that has caused this issue as well as substandard build materials!

    Slide out floor rotten

    Hi all. I too have a BC3250ts with rotten floors in the slide outs. 2010 manufacture date We'll the two living area ones. I'm going to have to replace them in the very near future. They certainly won't last another winter. I am surprised that the material used is not a water resistant material...

    3250TS mains wiring.

    Lucky I could borrow the sniffer and gen unit. The wire appears to run across the roof of the wardrobe and down the nose cone somewhere. Didn't find the end but decision made as there would be no way to draw a new wire through! Cut a hole in the wardrobe wall and fit a power point on the side of...

    3250TS mains wiring.

    I am in New Zealand. We use 230v as mains supply which mine has been converted to. The power point I am trying to convert is original. I would suspect that it was laid by the factory for use by a TV or similar. It is in the roof above the parcel shelf between two cupboards in the bedroom. Just...

    3250TS mains wiring.

    Sorry I probably should have mentioned my rig has been rewired for 230v ac. I need to track the cable back on the hope I can draw a new wire through. My outdoor Ac outlet is just to the right of the entrance door (between entrance door and storage door) which is quite a run from the blank outlet...

    3250TS mains wiring.

    I bought a 2010 BC3250ts a while ago. I am trying to track the 120v cable that goes to a power outlet between the two cupboards in the bedroom upstairs. There are two electrical cables going to a blanked off plate on the roof but neither are live. I want to add a TV on the shelf but I can't find...

    Toilet Issues

    Well after a bit of research and response from Dometic that they do not supply replacement parts (well the bits I needed. Foot pedal and butterfly valve assy) but they could supply a whole assy for NZ$595 grrr I decided to have a go fixing it myself. A little disassembly required and I had to...

    Toilet Issues

    Yes the Sealand model is $NZ795. I see the Dometic 320 at $US135 on Amazon but the postage is something like $US300. Free in the USA lol! The joys of being a little out of the way. It may end up with me disassembling the whole thing and manufacturing / reworking the original ball myself if the...

    Toilet Issues

    Hi. Just a couple of questions from the other side of the world! I have A Dometic 310 model toilet in my BC3250. It has the pedal snapped off when I purchased it and thought it would be a little issue to resolve. It appears not to be an easy fix as the shaft has broken on the ball valve assy and...

    Slide Room Floor Rotted, Need Advice

    Hi. Is there anyone out there that can advise what thickness the floor is in the dining room / fridge floor on a 2010 BC3250-TS. I am in New Zealand and have both downstairs slideouts showing moisture damage to the point where they need replacing. No one here to ask. I intend using a marine...

    Looking at a BC 3250TS

    Hi all. Well I have done it. Proud owner of a 2010 BC3250-TS. Bought second hand with a few issues. Does anyone have a pdf copy or advise of where I can find a copy of the owners manual. As this was a repo unit there was not much help with it. Any areas of concern that anyone could add would be...

    Looking at a BC 3250TS

    Yes I understand the no liability but just great to have a set of eyes over it before committing. I have sent a few feelers out but I guess it is Xmas and a slow time for dealers so am still on the hunt. It would be shipped back here to NZ. Thanks Alan

    Looking at a BC 3250TS

    Wow thanks for the friendly greeting. I currently have a R-Vision Maxlite and decided it is time to upgrade. The offer of someone looking at for me sounds pretty good as it is a little distance to travel to find it isn't in the stated condition. Thanks again Alan
