You guys are very right I should have put my satellite info into the post. I am using a Direct TV Multi Satellite LNB 18x20 Dish antenna ZKF-DX54 Now I hav thought about the newer oval direct TV dishes which have the micro adjust but I am not sure they are better and They take up a lot...

I have been traveling with direct TV satellite system in my rig now for several years. I can usually whip out my home built tripod with the dish on it and find my satellites within a few min, however what I do not always get is my local channels , some time I do other times no go . It seems...

Hi Folks My 2008 Big Horn has a little awning issue? when I put it up for travel it does not want to line up and go into place right, I have been told to try to slide it one way or another on the tube and try that? did not seem to work for me? Any thoughts? it is only off by about 1/2 " but...

Not sure about your rig , but on mine I dropped the underbelly right where the dump hose hooks up and it is all very plain to see then? As I said it is not a bad job, ended cutting out about a foot square of the underbelly and everything was easy to get to. Flush tank well would be #1 on my list...

My 2008 3055RL Bighorn has had a few issues with the fireplace it is a Desa model and they have obviously gone bankrupt, according to the web site I need parts for it, or need to replace it with another. Looking around I can find several 30 " models but I am looking for 26" to fit existing...

Ok I have been experiencing the black tank seep, when one removes the cap I get about a quart of dark water to play with when hooking up the hose. I thought well I will just add the extra shutoff valve hat has been a blessing to many RVers In the past. However when I purchased one and put it on...

Boy reading the posts so far I have to wonder if a guy would be better off going with another brand? I see Bull Dog 10000 lb with two motors advertised on a couple sites for under $600 ? And I am sure there are others ?What are your guys thoughts on that? My concern I have not found the culprit...

Sorry Ted should have put that in Electric Venture models I called the local Big Horn Dealer here locally and was told no repair they must be replaced? No shocker there, but I also called a RV repair place and was told they would check on it but thought replace was the only way to go? No...

Hi All we just returned from a 4000 plus trip and a couple days ago, we put the jacks down to get the truck out from under the rig. jacks started slowly then raised the rig a little then the motor continues to run but nothing happening? I reversed the switch it went down , so raised it again...

Ok another update checked all circuit breakers, all ok also used manual crank and it cranks easy so I am guessing binding gears not the issue. I put battery charger on the battery and it seems fully charged? Light comes on saying so? So here I am just wondering what else to check. it does...

Dan Thank you for that I just went out and checked my breakers there are no tiny reset buttons on my breakers? But just in case I do have a bad one I will take my meter out there and see whats up, but thanks for the guide that helps explain things.

Bob I guess what you are saying, the battery needs to be charged, apparently being hooked into power does not charge the battery well enough? it has been in the rv now for a few days? Just a little confused sorry about that.

I have gone back in these posts for several months looking for a issue with the motor running slowly for a few moments then coming up to speed? This Happens when dry camping or hooked up to elec? It always comes up to full speed, or has so far? I checked all the wiring from the circuit breaker...

Hi Folks I have a 2008 BH 3500 and on a recent trip to Fresno Ca the air was not doing anything. So when I got home the temp was about 68 I turned it on and hung a thermometer from the blower it pulled the temp down in about ten min to 46 or so? So that tells me it was working fine at home...

The light switch on the Lv Rm slide is a kind of paddle switch, the paddle as I call it has fallen out and will not stay in. The switch still works with out the paddle, but looks hokey. I have tried several RV stores for one but no joy, must be a Heartland Item anyone tell me where I could...

What have you folks done about the referigrator and freezer doors that open too far, there is no way that I can see to put a stop so the doors do not open so far, till they hit the pantry doors? Second when operating the slides to close the first in has a heck of a squeal at first then it...

Hi All When we first bought this rig a couple weeks ago I went through the Mods section and found one on moving or adding a light switch or switches to get them out of the closet and into the hallway above the thermostat and air conditioning controls. it seemed a rather simple mod but there was...

Hi All I am a new Member with a question, What do you folks recommend for internet access? I find that the Wi Fi at Many campgrounds here on the west coast are marginal, and some non existant? I am a verizon phone customer, and am wondering about a smart phone hooked up to a lap top. Any...

Reading and doing quick search I found lots of satellite issues, Here is mine, just bought this 2008 3055 RL, Nice gentleman told me the connections were reversed for sat and cable? I do not believe he ever hooked it up to Satellite just cable. At least that is what it sounded like? He was...

Well we did it! we ended up buying the 2008 3055 it looked like new! PO had only used it half dozen times. he was elderly gentleman and said he had made his last trip. The only thing we could find wrong so far the desk day and night shade needs re stringing, and the bedroom speakers are not...
