After 8 years of owning our Cyclone 3010 we have sold it and moved to a class C from another manufacturer. We loved the toy hauler and put it to good use during the time we owned it but the set up and take down started to take more time and effort than we wanted. We added a number of upgrades...

It looks like my central vacuum has given up and I am considering a swap out to a new unit. I have looked at the Dirt Devil 1500 but wonder about retro fitting. At this point I am open to all suggestions of anyone who might have done a swap out. In looking at the Diet Devil it might be a bigger...

One of the small pins that holds the flap onto the vent has broken and I am wondering if I have to replace the entire vent or if there are replacements for the vent flap. I cannot locate a name or part number on this but the vent is 13" X 6" overall. Any help would be appreciated and I have...

I have new information on a thread that I started but it is closed. How do I get it opened again? https://heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/60371-Happijac-bunks-UtVs-and-modifications?highlight=cyclone+3010+bunk

I have been researching the Anderson Ultimate here and on other sites and have read most of the threads here. What I could not find was much info on the Pullrite 2400 Superlite which looks to be as good as the Anderson and has a 5 year warranty as opposed to the one year of the Anderson. They...

Correct guess wins.

For those of you (us) who have the Banks Exhaust Brake on your TV here is a little tip that may save some trouble shooting, I am not talking about the plug and play Banks system but rather the mechanical/electric system. My first indication that something was wrong was when at the first...

About a month ago I put my RV into "storage" with National General who is Good Sam's insurance company. If you call for a policy through Good Sam your insurance is actually with National General. Today I get a check from National General for $116 so I call them to see what this is about. It...

I just purchased a Honda Pioneer 700-4. I had done much research and knew that there was not enough head clearance for the roll cage and had planned to either remove the cage when transporting or have the cage modified. I was not looking forward to either. My happijack system has the lift braces...

When I was going through my profile information I found this statement under my DOB. I am sure there is a reason for this but I thought that it was pretty funny because I would like to start over at about 18 and know what I know today. So if I change by DOB will that happen? "Your date of birth...

I have determined that the nylon gears in the fuel station pump have swelled and stop the pump from pumping fuel. I guess this is a fairly common problem and has a fix with GCIs replacement part number 1212 but I'm having trouble locating that part. Does anyone have a source for this part? I...

I tried bring back an old thread to get some help and got no response. That may be because of the location or perhaps there just is not any more information, but I find that strange so at the risk of getting my hand slapped for posting out of thread I am posting this here in the general area.

There are numerous questions and discussions about making it through freezing conditions while camping. I just returned from an elk hunt in Northern Arizona where temps were down to 9 F two nights and 12 and 18 F two other night. Keep in mind this is dry camping so there is no help except a...

I have been trying to decide which route to take to insulate the underside of the garage floor since we use the trailer during cold months for elk hunting and camping. We all know that lack of good heat is a common issue with the Cyclone garage and there have been many questions posted about...

At the risk of offending another company that posts here I have to ask this question. Has anyone tried this brand and if so what were your results? Having 2 doors on the toy hauler meas twice the price of the purchased lock if I decide to use them on both doors. So I am looking at alternatives...

This is probably a question for those in Arizona and other high heat climates but I am considering switching to AGM batteries. I would probably still stay with the two 6 volt battery setup just for space, weight issues and since I do mostly dry camping. The cost would be about three times that...

Has anyone added an awning over the rear door area of the Cyclone 3010 and if so I would like to get more information on what all was involved, and the cost of the project.

I would guess that we all have struggled with keeping our holding tanks clean and odor free. I certainly was one of those and had tried most every cleaning method available including the Geo Method. Some worked ok and some did not. Recently on a camping trip we developed sewer odors and about...

My wife's cousin has a new 5th wheel and a 2010 Ford SuperDuty which he bought used but not from the original owner. The "button" in the photo is attached under the steering wheel at the bottom of the dash. Neither of us have any idea what it is or what it controls. Has anyone seen this item...

I have been considering changing out my fresh water and city water fill station in the UDC with an Anderson Kantleak system but I cannot find an RV parts sale that sell this unit or much about it other than on Anderson's site and the specs are there but nothing about sales or price. Anyone...

There are many threads about related issues but I am still unclear about how to check to see if any of those are the answer to my problem. The problem:I recently dumped and was trying to flush the black tank. It appeared that no water was going into the tank from the water connection and there...

Before the heater kicks on there is a clicking noise from the air conditioner over head. The fan is in auto and this just started a few days ago and Heartland says there is nothing to worry about but I think this is not normal functioning

My trailer sits for several months at a time, and I keep a Battery Tender on it during those times. I have found that the posts develop some corrosion during these times. I have heard of several methods for preventing this from happening as much and wonder what system most here use to keep the...

I have a new Shurflow 4048 that will be replacing the 5900-0201 that was installed by the factory. The problem I have is that the 5900 has a B+ and ground wire and the 4048 has two B+ connections. I am not sure exactly how the second positive wire that is on the front of the pump is supposed to...

OK, I saw something this morning that made my stomach turn a little. Perhaps I am being over dramatic but let's see what others think. Firstly, when I leave home to dry camp or hunt for the week or weekend my fresh water tanks are full and I don't plug up a dump station filling my water tanks...

I have a leak in the hot water knob for the power sprayer in the UDC and I have no idea where I might find replacement parts. I will probably replace both the hot and cold internal workings but does anyone have an idea of where to find them and what the make/model might be?

Looks like I need to replace the worthless 5900-0201 pump that Shurflo won't warranty over one year if the RV manufacturer installed it. So the question becomes which Flojet pump in a good replacement since I will never buy another Shurflo? And their customer service department could use some...

I did a search and could not find anything on this but then who knows what wording I should have used. In any case has anyone replaced the foam cover on the entry stair handle? I had to replace the front door foam and the back is getting closed to needing replacement. I used Stromberg-Carson...

My unit is "wired and framed for 2nd AC unit". Has anyone installed the second unit and if so what was involved and what was needed besides the second unit? Also what size unit did you install? I have heard 13.5K,

Does anyone know if the LED shown here is the direct replacement for the bulbs in the lamp over the sofa in my Cyclone? LEDwholesalers Disc Type G4 Base Side Pin 10 SMD LED, 10 Watt Holagen 140 Lumen Bulb Replacemnt For RV Camper Trailer Boat Marine Warm White, 1109WW

Does anyone know how to get to the bulbs in the small "can" lights over the head of the bed in the 3010 and exactly what bulbs do they take? I would like to put in a bulb that is not as bright. Thanks

I may have created a very expensive repair for myself. I began filling the freshwater tanks much as I have in the past. I usually only turn the fill hose on to about 1/2 feed because I know that the crossover on these tanks is slow to equalize and I try to stay close until it is near full. I got...

We use the garage bunks during hunting trips in the Fall and Spring. I was getting very little air through the vent so I took the drawer below the fridg out and now I know why. Trimmed, fixed the kinks and refitted.

Here is a question for those mechanically minded on the site. As you are no-doubt aware the 3010 has two gray tanks. They are not connected so you have 2-40 gal tanks one of which is the shower gray storage and the other is the bathroom lav and kitchen sink. If you have a washer/dryer the washer...

I had read here that these tires have been a problem for some and found out the hard way that this is a fact. With that in mind I have been careful about keeping tire pressure at the recommended settings. 40 miles out of Tucson on a 70 degree day and smooth road I noticed that something was...

I think that I read a thread some time back where someone else had this problem but I do not recall a solution. When I wash out the garage water gets into the two toolboxes that are at the back of the garage. There is no escape route for the water so I end up with an inch of water in the boxes...
