    Fuel Tank Popping

    2015 Cyclone CY3010 - Have noticed lately the fuel tank popping as cool mornings turn into hot days and again in the evening as it cools off. I can't recall hearing this before now and we spend almost every weekend in the RV. Is there a vent that I need to check or where would I start looking?

    Just a Tip - Full mark on Hydraulic Reservoir

    Most everyone knows to check your Hydraulic reservoir for Level up and slides when everything has been retracted and stowed. But what if you just want to know if your low or not when your setup? Here is what I did. I extended my Level Up to full height and opened my slide outs ( on level Ground...

    2018 4005 is home

    I like the swivel mount and am thinking of doing the same thing for my 2015 CY3010. I assume that there is a strap to keep it in place while traveling?

    Thetford Aqua Magic Style 2 Toilet Issue

    Woke up this morning and when I went to the bathroom, the bowl was filled to the rim. Flushed it and pumped the pedal a couple of times. Then watched and could not see any water filling the bowl. Couple hours later, my wife called me and asked if I was playing pranks on her, filling the bowl up...

    Level Up System has lost its mind

    My Level Up System on my CY3010 has lost its mind. Left out on a 4 day weekend. Pulled into where we wanted to setup. Hit Level Up and everything setup as expected. Sunday, pulled in the slides, retracted the level up system, hooked to the TV, loaded the toys and 5 hours later was back at home...

    Atwood Water Heater (GC10a-4e)

    Thank you very much. Saves me a bunch of work. Several searches on Google didn't turn up one diagram showing as much as page 33 does. Thank you again.

    Atwood Water Heater (GC10a-4e)

    Well, I finally did it, I drained the water heater without checking to see if the electric element was turned off. The one time I didn't check, well, anyway. Looking up the cost of a new element, not as bad as I had thought. Less than $30. However, I don't see anything on the front of the water...

    Need some Help on CY3010

    I am pretty sure it is a fender brace and I ordered the one they said was it. But it is not long enough to go from the top of the fender well to the Plastic trim. When I go it, I walked around to the slide out side and sure enough. It would work there, as it mounts to the lip of the slide out...

    Need some Help on CY3010

    As I am fitting pieces back to the right side fender well and J wrap after my blowout. I see a place where something was mounted to the top of the fender well directly between the 2 tires. Heartland doesn't show anything on their parts list. Could someone with a 2015 CY3010 take a picture...

    Cyclone loading ramp failure

    Suggestion for the bolt holes, I used to work for a marine repair place and when ever we would mount an outboard motor to the transom of a boat. We would shoot silicon sealant into the hole and while one person pushed the bolt in from one side. Another person would be on the other side with his...

    Thanks - Going to be a couple weeks before I get back to it. Have to go out of town the next 2 weekends. I will try to remember to take some pictures before I finish cutting the openings and post here.

    Intersting Discovery

    I forgot to mention that the plastic fender well end-caps hold the fender in shape and create the box. Heartland doesn't carry them anymore. Apparently not used on any of the current models. luckily, I had one still in tact and took it to a metal shop and they were able to fab them for me. Yes...

    Intersting Discovery

    As I stated in previous post, tire blew out. Tore the sheet metal for the fender wheel up along with a few of the support bracket. After emailing back and forth with Heartland parts department to make sure we were talking about the same parts, (no exploded view of parts required to build a RV...

    Electric Brakes

    To be honest, I am not sure. I guess I could be flippant and say "The ones that came with it from the factory". But that wouldn't answer the question either. The bad part is, I am not sure how to even tell what axles are on it. I guess I should call Heartland with my VIN and find out.

    Electric Brakes

    Unfortunately, I do not have $3000 to drop on disk brakes. Believe me, I would love to have disk brakes. I have noticed that on bumpy roads, my trailer brakes seemed to work a little better. So I am going to do 2 things. 1. Pull them apart and look at the adjustment and magnets. 2. Add an...

    Electric Brakes

    Had a situation a couple weekends ago where I was pulling my 2015 CY3010 with our 06 Dodge 4Dr LWB 3500 down the Interstate slightly above the speed limit. Had 18 wheeler and 2 cars in front of me in the right lane and cars passing in the left lane. 18 Wheeler suddenly pulls over right...

    2017 Cyclone 3110 at COTA

    I pulled the switch down and pulled the wiring out and put it aft of the switch so that I could make sure I could power everything off when I rolled the awning up. Then stuffed everything back into the opening for the switch. System has 3 preset settings for brightness. 100% 50% and 25%. Then I...

    Carlisle tire throws tread TPM Didn't help

    One of my Carlisle threw its tread on the way home last Sunday. Less than 2500 miles on them. Had checked the TPM just 30 seconds prior and everything looked great, pressure and temps. Then I hear a noise and look in my rearview mirror and see all kinds of pieces flying around behind the...

    2017 Cyclone 3110 at COTA

    I ordered 2, one for each awning. Once I figured out which way the current ran, I was off to the races. I control both lights with a single controller from outside the rig. Really nice to be able to dim them to a soft glow.

    Fastners for Awning Assembly Stripped

    I got my arm assembly installed over the weekend. Finally went with 1/4" blind rivets with 7/16 grip length. I did a test hole on a piece of wood to see how hard it would be to drill out if I needed to. Less than 2 minutes I had the head drilled off and was punching the center piece out. Time...

    Fastners for Awning Assembly Stripped

    Thanks for the suggestions. The nutzert looked good, till I realized that it has a lip on the outside which would not allow the base of the arm assembly to be flush against the camper wall. It feels like there is a backing plate when I probe the hole. Think I will go with the blind rivets and...

    Fastners for Awning Assembly Stripped

    OK, I had to replace the non motorized side of my main awning again as I got stupid and didn't set it to drain the rain. (1st time due to wind) When I replaced it the first time, I noticed that some of the screws would start to tighten up and I could tell they where going to slip, so I stopped...

    Rear Door Leaking

    I pulled my CY3010 through the first rain storm that I can recall since owning the RV. (Bought in Oct 2014) When we arrived at our destination, I lowered the rear door and noticed what looked like water streaks down the inside to the base of the ramp. When I ran my finger across the base area...

    Tieing Down Awning

    Just to let people know, on my 2015 CY3010. I have the motorized Carefree Traveler Awning set. I "ASSUMED" it was self dumping. This last weekend, we got a nice shower where we were at. I was away at the pool and after the shower was over. I came back to the RV to see the left side as you look...

    Companion Hitch Question

    I have a Draw-Tite companion hitch that I was recently told that once I have it in and pinned. I should tighten down on the nut to pull the center shaft up tight against the pin that goes through the hitch mount and then tighten the adjustment bolt on the side to hold it in place. The problem...

    ATF: Cyclone - Bunk ladder in toy hauler area

    I finally got tired of leaving my TH for 5 or 6 weeks at a time for warranty work. Correction, looked at week 1 and set waiting for parts the other 4 weeks. I started calling heartland directly and they were happy to send me the parts I needed and fixed it myself. Also, this forum was a huge...

    Alternative Storage locations for Tables?

    I have thought about that as well. What is the railing I see going across the bottom? Nevermind, its your ladder. DUH! Sorry about the slow reply. Started a New Job on Monday and I been busy as a cat in a shallow sand box.

    Alternative Storage locations for Tables?

    After schlepping the garage table and the living room table up the stairs to the master bed to store the tables under it for about the 30th time. I am sick of doing that, but for the life of me, cannot figure out a better place. What has everyone else been doing with theirs when they travel?

    Powered Awning - Upper Arm Broke

    Received the assembly Friday. Yesterday I decided to see if I could do it myself. The idler head portion came with the assembly, fortunately for me. It is held in place by a single bold. Removed the bolt and set the head aside. Then I did the sane thing on the damaged arm. I took 2 - 2x4x8 and...

    Powered Awning - Upper Arm Broke

    Well, no help from Heartland, 1 year warranty. He wasn't able to help identify the awning manufacture/model either. Wasn't listed on the build list he had. So, now I will have to go to the awning and try and unroll it without further damage and look at the tag next to the spindle to get...
