    Snapped a Leaf Spring: Axles out of position

    A few weeks ago I had the rear axle shift on our Landmark because the centering pin broke. As it turned out the axles actually shifted at least slightly at all the u-bolts. It was recommended that all the u-bolts and centering pins be replaced. I had the work completed at a truck and trailer...

    Great Customer Support from RV Lock

    I have had my RV Lock v4 since 12/2014 and I recently noticed that the keypad membrane is cracking from use, which was resulting in the numbers being revealed that are part of our access code. We use the keypad almost exclusively because the fob is pretty slow. I didn't believe this should be a...

    Shower overhead light replacement

    Funny you should ask! I just yesterday decided it was time to find the answer after months without a light in the shower. Turned out to be a simple fix. Twist the metal trim ring around the light clockwise maybe a quarter of an inch. Then with your fingernails or a thin bladed screwdriver, pop...

    SOLVED: No AC power at microwave outlet

    Re: No power at microwave outlet. I had pretty the same thing happen to my Landmark and I found a loose wire in the junction box under the kitchen slide. The wires actually came apart. I reattached with the wire nut and then taped them with electrical tape to ensure they will not come apart in...

    Horrible service

    We own a Heartland Landmark and use Diederich's RV Mart in Coxsackie NY. They are wonderful people and do great work. They will do warranty work and work with heartland. We have used them for over 4 years for our service work with no complaints. Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

    Flipping to Genie with DirecTV

    Bob, My 2011 Landmark is setup the same way with the jumper in the bedroom closet. I solved the problem by running a coax cable directly from the closet thru the washer/dryer area and down under the bedroom window and under the dresser into the clothes cabinet and up to the top of the dresser...

    How Do I Re-seal This

    You can clean that area with denatured alcohol and recaulked over the old. You can get denatured alcohol at Home Depot or Lowe's. Recaulked my seams this spring. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk

    Slides and landing gear slow to retract--have to push retract switches several times

    I encountered the same issue a year ago and replacing the breaker corrected the problem. Purchased 2 breakers at a NAPA Auto Parts store. The second one was to have spare should this ever happen again. Good luck!! Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk

    TST helped with my product misunderstanding

    Re: Fast one by tst? Misunderstanding by OP Great company!! They have replaced a bad sensor and provided new o-rings free of charge. I also purchased my replacement batteries directly from them this year and they shipped free. Can't ask for better service. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk

    Shower overhead light replacement

    Last night the bulb in the shower overhead light burned out in our Landmark. I'm not sure how to get access to replace the bulb. The lens on the light doesn't appear to turn and it looks like the only other option is to take down the entire skylight internal cover. I'm sure someone has replaced...

    Splendide all in one machine **LINT AND HAIR ON CLOTHES **

    One complete cleaning cycle takes about 2 hours. So your initial cleaning will take about 6 hours. But after that it takes about 2 hour per month to keep the unit cleaned out.

    Jack antenna - low signal on one channel

    Have you tried this station with the satellite dish in the stowed position to determine if the dish is actually blocking the signal? Do the three Heartland rigs utilize the same amplifier? Different amplifiers may not receive the same channels. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk

    TST System

    I have a 507 TST system as well and have found that my air pressure gauge is consistently 4 psi lower then what my TST system reports. If you were to use 4 gauges I believe you would get 4 different readings. I know a number of people who use the TST system and praise it for early warning with a...

    Suburban Hot Water Tank Failure

    Our rig is just over 3 years old and just this past month we developed a pin hole in our suburban hot water tank. The hole developed in the burn chamber. We full-time in our rig and flush the tank twice a year and check the condition of the anode rod. We believe the tank liner failed causing the...

    Propane regulator

    This past summer my door side regulator failed and I was smelling gas from the door side tank. My RV guy told that regulator is only needed if you have a generator. He indicated I could connect the line to the tank directly because we also have the off door side regulator. I opted to install a...

If you are on shore power your can run the water heater on either 120 volts or propane or both if you want. Sent...

    ATF: Bighorn - 3160 EL Mystery coax jumpers in the bedroom closet

    One goes to your antenna and other goes to your satellite. You could put your receiver there. But if your rig is like mine there is a single coax that runs to the TV through the wall/ceiling and you have to keep moving that small jumper to select air/cable or sat. That's inconvenient so I ran a...
