That was kind of what I thought also, but because it would reset when we turned off the 120 volt heat element it was confusing. I don't figure this is going to heal itself, nothing else on this trailer has so far. We are back home and it is in storage, but I have 15 amp power. I will open up...

Nothing like asking for help then disappearing. My apologies. The light above the “12 Volt” switch has come on and best I can tell it is a warning that the 120 volt water heater has tripped. We don’t run the 12 volt propane part of the heater very often and it wasn’t on when the light came...

Thanks, I’ll see if I can turn down the thermostat. It doesn’t do it often but on this 30 day trip it has done it about 4 times. Didn’t have the propane on, just the 120 volt heater. Thanks again.

I have a 2016 Big Country 3650RL. The 120 volt water heater works but occasionally cause a small red light to come on and the heater obviously shuts off. I am not talking omg about the red “ON” light on the switch itself but one just above the switch. I have looked in the manual but find no...

I spoke with the nice folks at IRV and they suggested I buy a IRV 34. Of course they would. No suggestion on how to reset the DVD carriage or fix the issue. So...I bought a $49 Blue ray/DVD player from Amazon and simply connected the HDMI to the TV. As the sound bar works from the TV, I...

I had the same issue with one of my A/C units in a previous trailer. It would stop and then start again occasionally, then be fine at other times. It finally dawned on me to pull the thermostat off the wall and there I found a wire that was not captured when the connection was crimped. It was...

We have a 2016 Big Country with the iRV33 unit. It has been fine until this last trip and it will NOT take a disc. Tried turning it off and on, pushed "eject" multiple times, and still will not take a disc. It seems to me it thinks there is already a disc inside so it will not take another...

RoadJunkie, I inserted the foam rubber into the ducts as you described and it has improved the cooling a lot. The thermostat for the unit in the living room now is set about the same as the bedroom thermostat and the entire coach cools much more quickly. With the air leak down the wall, the LR...

Re: ATF: Big Country - Ducted AC has hole leaking cold air - Updateu I blocked off the open hole in the duct with some foam rubber on each side. We haven’t been in much over 85 degree heat but so far it is working WAY better than before. The “cold” wall is now the same temp as the rest of the...

Thanks Danemayer, the refrigerator runs exactly the same on propane as electric. The cap appears to be on the end of the drain hose also. I will check for air leaks again today, but because the refrigerator failed to go into emergency cooling when the thermistor was disconnected, I believe it...

Re: Norcold Model 2118 not cooling...ever We bought a 2016 Big Country new in Jan of 2017. We have had constant issues with the Norcold 2118 getting cold from day one. The door flap didn't seat correctly so our RV tech pulled out the refrigerator and found it to be 3/8" off level in the...

Okay, so I am glad it isn't just my Big Country, but I am sorry it is also you guys! Dang it, they (Heartland) are supposed to have those engineer types with the pocket protectors that figure out how to specify and design the AC systems. I think they need to come to TX, NM, or NV and do some...

Yes I paid Bout $20 for my scope and it is good enough for what I needed. They used to be out of sight priced.

Road Junkie, I may give that a try pending what Heartland says. Great idea, I had not thought of that; it would isolate the problem for now. Thanks!

Went up to storage and tried taking video down the AC duct. It isn't perfect, but I can see the size of hole someone chopped out for the vent pipe and bundle of wires. This area is directly above the wall where the Living Room AC thermostat is mounted, and just above the linen closet. My...
