I wouldnt dump it in the fresh water tank. you should have a seperate hose on the pump just stick it the anti freeze jug and turn on the pump it will fill the lines. before you do that turn the valves on the hot water tank to bypass it and drain it by removeing the plug. also there is three...
electric jacks;
you would think as often as this has happened to new owners they would put something in the manual or the dealer would explain this during the walk through. matbe heartland could put a relay on the jacks that would shut the switch off before they reached the top? there are other...
We have had our 2800rl across the US and love it. Watch the front jacks dont raise them to high leave several inches down so you dont blow a fuse or strip the gears. had to tighten the kitchen sink drains. other than that we have had no problems and a great time.
bought mine back east also(located in spokane) and took to heartland here . nice guys to work with. be sure to contact heartland before any warrenty work if you didnt buy it there they will tell you its not covered.
be sure to ask where the fuse to the jacks are and how far you can raise them...
after all the posts on this problem you would think the factory would have this listed in the manual and the salesperson doing the walk through would point out the location of the fuse. Also explain to buyer that if you raise the legs all the way up you will blow the fuse. cost me a 300$ lession.
I was reading the manual for my sundance yesterday and it stated" retract the front legs untill you hear a clutch sound then stop" I think they need to change that wording, it cost me 400$ to repair.
If you look in search for front jacks you will see problems. NEVER raise the jacks fully up you are lucky just a blown fuse. after a 400$ fix the dealer said always leave the jacks down about 6 " mine used to blow fuses then it stripped the gears out. marked a 6" red paint mark on the jacks...
fuse
there is a fuse from the battery to the motor 30amp. becareful not to raise the jacks up to high it will blow the fuse and or break the pins 400$ to replace and heartland will not cover under warrenty.:(
I agree! There should be a limit switch at least. but to save 400$ to repair i will leave the jacks 6" down that will be the same depth that my spare tire hangs down so it shouldnt hit the ground. I have painted the first 6" red so i wont go higher.
My dealer says keep the jacks about 6" down from full retracted. To replace pins is a 4 hr job at dealers not something that can be done in the field. :confused:
2009 under warrenty untill sept. shear pins inside jack legs both broke. heartland and lippert say you cant raise jack legs all the way up or this will happen. sounds stupid if you ask me why dont they fix it to work correctly. I can run the slides all the way in I can run the rear jacks all the...
dealer in spokane, freedom rv and dave (service mang) did a great job. I did not buy my sundance there but no questions and not put at the bottom of the list. even when heartland refused to warrenty they gave me a deal. Thanks dave
just back from dealers to fix front jacks. Not a happy camper. heartland would not warrenty jacks. shear pins on both sides broken 15 yrs of 5th wheeling never had this problem 1 trip with this one and broken? looking on forum many others having a front jack problem. needs to have a limit switch...
