    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?

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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?

    Diesel Generator???

    Have a 2015 CY3010 that has the Onan 5500 gas generator. Have been contemplating pulling it out and putting a Onan Diesel RV generator in its place. Diesel runs more efficiently, plus, that would add 30 gals of extra fuel for my TV if I needed it. Never ran out of fuel, but I have made the...

    REPAIRED: Onan 5500 w/ Error Code 14

    I woke up this morning to the sound of silence, not good, seeing we are dry camping and running the generator for supplemental electric heat in the trailer. I crawled out of bed and looked at the control panel. The switch is flashing 3 times, pause and 3 times. I assume this is code 33? I throw...

    SOLVED: Half my AC circuts work when on Generator

    Yesterday, Fired up my generator to give it a monthly run (2015 - CY3010) heard the transfer switch click over about 20 seconds after the gen fired up. Fridge, microwave all have power. But my TV, bathroom plugs and I believe the 12v charging do not, as my lights never "brightened up". My...

    Saw something about a new Cyclone model that had the master bedroom in the back garage area and lowered down once the garage was emptied. All the floors were elevated throughout the rig. Looked pretty interesting and wanted to see and find more information on it.

    Add Hitch Receiver to Cy3010

    Has anyone added a hitch receiver to a Cyclone 3010? Curious how difficult it was? Looks like we are the proud owners of Sea Doo and I really don't want to make several trips to get everything in one location and home again.

    Probably a Stupid Question, but here gores.........

    Recently put a TST 507 on my Cyclone 3010. It works perfectly and I see the benefits of having it. So here is my stupid question. The system monitors pressure and temperature while mounted on the valve stem. I get the pressure part. That is pretty easy. How does it get the temperature? Seeing it...

    2015 CY 3010 Living room slide out table legs

    We have decided that the Table in front of the living room slide out is about 1.5 to inches too tall when we sit on the couch. Our plates are around the middle of our chest, just very uncomfortable. The poles have plastic end caps that fit into the floor and table receptacles. Anyone know if I...

    Atwood Plastic Water heater drain plug

    I read somewhere in this forum to NOT replace the plastic drain plug on an Atwood with a Brass plug. Didn't say why. About 3 months ago, I rounded the corners of the plastic plug trying to get it off. So I ran down to the hardware store with the plastic plug and matched the threads and diameter...

    Cyclone 3010 Mods

    Here are a couple of mods I have done for our Cyclone 3010. Really pretty simple ones.But I am amazed at how simple little changes make a world of difference. The first was just adding a plug under the top kitchen cabinets. The only outlet was on the wall in front of the sink. This allowed us to...

    Cyclone 3010 Bedroom A/C Thermostat Location

    Who ever decided that putting the A/C thermostat on the bottom of the over head cabinets in the garage was a good idea, wasn't 6'1". I am sure it was done that way for ease of installation. But it is a real pain in the neck to stoop down and try to look up at it. Last weekend was the first time...

    What does everyone do at night for privacy on the exterior doors?

    On our 2015 Cyclone 3010, the front doors have the mirrored privacy glass that works well during the day. However, at night, lights on inside and dark outside. It is there for the viewing. Curious what others have done to resolve this. I have several thoughts how to resolve it, including...

    Cyclone 3010 Radio

    Has anyone added "Cheap Heat" to Propane Central Heat

    Looking at adding the "Cheap Heat' add-on to my Central heating system on my CY3010. Not for economic reasons, but for convenience of running my system when it drops below freezing. Getting tired of blowing the lines 2 to 3 times a month when we go out to it. Just curious if it is worth the effort?

    2015 CY3010 Microwave/Vent-a-hood

    On our 3010, when you ran the vent-a-hood, you would get a lot of air coming around the end of the microwave (yes, the exterior vent door was unlocked). Enough that your hair would blow. Over the weekend, I pulled the assembly down and, just what I suspected. Not anything between the vent on the...

    As I have not taken my CY3010 in yet for any warranty work. I was curious what length of times others experience when retuning their rigs for warranty repairs? I know there are horror stories and some have sat for months. But in general, how long should I have to wait to get mine back?
