Thanks John, I'll check but the walls were dry and only place that was wet was the floor around where the slide out and the rear wall come together. I checked seals but couldn't find any water coming through. I will check the caulking around the rear window - the cap is okay, I already looked...

Okay, I've been reading and researching on the forum and have a couple of questions/issues. After a long dry spell we had 4 inches of rain. I discovered a large wet spot on the carpet at the rear of the coach around the LR/DR slide-out. I inspected seals and cannot find any place water is coming...

I had two clips holding the sink in on either side of the faucet and none on the other three sides. To put them in my 3600 RL I had to take out the tilt out drawers and a couple of drawers beside the sink, as well as get under the sink from the storage cabinet in the corner of the "L". When the...

We had issues with the galley sink. Every time we used much water in the galley sink the whole trailer smelled absolutely horrible. I changed the vent under the cabinet - no help. The vent on the roof was not properly pulling fumes out of the tank. I changed to a rotating, wind driven vent cap...

I'm in the same boat - just noticed the sink sagging on the off faucet side. Got under the cabinet and there are not clips installed - just the sealant looking stuff on the counters. So, I'll be making that same phone call in the morning. Thanks

A friend of mine in Austin, Texas stopped a young lady who adamantly told him that under no circumstances could he writer her a traffic ticket. When he asked her to explain herself she said, "Well, I was in traffic court this morning taking care of another ticket and had a talk with the judge...

There are a lot of folks who really like the Sundance who have replied. One thing to remember is that you trade outside height for inside height - meaning it is shorter on the outside and easier to tow, but if you are tall you will probably not enjoy stooping in the bedroom. We have the BH...

Niles and Deb, I have a BH 3600 RL with a dealer installed hitch receiver for towing a motorcycle trailer. Since I lost a trailer behind a fifth wheel (with two motorcycles on it) I've been a wreck about towing tandem. Part of the issue is not being able to see the bike trailer. What camera set...

Thanks Rick. I had redirected airflow away from the thermostat but that didn't do much. The cycling through the night woke me up. So far, in the past 25 minutes it has cycled on and off five times. On for about 2-3 minutes at a time. Off for 3-4 minutes, on again, etc. etc. etc. During the heat...

I have the Duo Therm Penguin with a Duo Therm digital thermostat in the front bedroom of the BH. Something is not functioning properly and I'm not sure if its a thermostat or AC unit issue and the service department at my dealer is closed today. The AC unit cycles strangely. It comes on and...

I have to agree with several posts - I don't think there is a bias against 1/2 ton trucks, its just that many of the Heartland trailers are too heavy to safely pull with a 1/2 ton. That doesn't mean that a 1/2 ton can't pull the trailer, but it means there is a question of whether or not it...

Thanks for the responses. I am going to check the cooling fans as soon as it warms up a bit. Temps down in the 40s with rain right now and the fridge is back in the mid 30s. I played with the Thermister (however you spell it) and temps after defrost and adjustment are back to 36-37 unless the...

After showing someone in our campground our new Big Horn, they went and bought the same model. As soon as they got home they discovered the fridge didn't cool and went through some difficulty until they discover it was the thermister (not sure of spelling). When they replaced it everything went...

Mr Mike, We had nearly the same experience. The first dealer we went to went through the high pressure stuff, undercut us on the trade in, did not show us the specific trailer I wanted to see, and then tried to pressure us into buying a different brand. They are a big and well known Heartland...

Congrats Drew. My wife and I are full-timing in a 3600 RL and love it. Hope yours works out as well.
