I have an issue where shore power does not work, but Gen power does. This should isolate the issue to the transfer switch. I am going to look at that this morning. The second issue, not sure if it is relates or not is that I have a 20A fuse that is blown. I replaced the fuse and it...

I have an odd issue and can't find the problem. At first, I could not get the generator to start, but after some fiddling around and adjusting the altitude setting, we got it to fire up. With no load, the generator surges dramatically. When I add a load, it will run for a minute or two then...

I am trying to decide what to do with my Cyclone 3100. We love it and have tried getting out at least once a month. In actuality, it turns into about 10 trips a year. I will be going back to school this fall for a MBA! Unfortunately that means I will be very busy for the next 2 years. My...

I was on the website the other day and noticed that the 3100 was not on there. I am surprised they would drop the model so quickly (2-3 years). We have a 2014 and got it right when they came out in July 2013. We love this design. To us, it was a perfect compromise between the 3010 and the...

Anyone have any opinion on the 3 seasons door? We have a 3100 and are probably going to be staying in it for a while (2 months) while we have work done on our house. luckily, we have full hookups on our side yard. Unfortunately, we only have 13' wide to work with. That makes it very tight...

I am headed to Pahrump, NV on Thanksgiving day and will be there for the weekend. Has anyone taken 127/178/372 from Baker to Pahrump? Is there anything to watch out for on that road? I will be taking the Cyclone 3100 with all of the animals! If noboby knows about 127/17/372, then what about...

Has anyone else seen this? My 6pt leveling is working fine. The legs go up and down as intended in both auto and manual mode. The problem I have is that the display lights up, but there is no text shown. I have e-mailed Lippert and they said if it is under warranty, take it to the repair...

After my day today, I am ready to walk. Have any of you just said enough is enough and left? I work in IT and and am ready to leave California. It would be tough to leave friends and family, but I have to assume the job market would be better outside of California. Any recommendations for...

Onan 5500 not starting...partially solved (now fully solved...I think) We have the Onan RV QG 5500 EVAP installed in our Cyclone. We try to run it for 30-60 minutes per month, minimum, and it currently has 49 hours on it. We were pretty good about that the first year, then we ran into the...

We are looking at installing an air filtration device in the garage area of the Cyclone. The manufacture makes a wall bracket and we like the idea of keeping it off the ground, away from the dogs! Plus, there is a power outlet up high, for the washer/dryer, that we do not use. My question is...

This weekend, the popping has returned. :-( I think the weather may have a little to do with it. The daytime highs were near 80 and the evening lows in the low 30's. Looks like a second round of additive will be needed. I wish Lippert would acknowledge this as a problem and come up with a...

I finally did it. I broke down and bought the Magnum MSH3012M inverter with all the bells and whistles (AGS, BMK, Adv Remote, and 2 300Ah 6v batteries). Since I had neither the time, not the knowledge, I opted to let a shop do the install. Just got the trailer back and so far, I am very...

I have been thrilled with my Cyclone and the service and support received from Heartland...until now. As my one year warranty was coming to an end, I opted to have the final outstanding items fixed. We had a warped wall between the bedroom and living area, which two shops looked at and feared...

Is anyone familiar with Pismo Beach in central California? We will be staying at Jalama Beach (south of Pismo) in August and then up to Paso Robles (north of Pismo) for a few nights. I was thinking of stopping in Pismo for lunch. I know there are places you can camp on the beach, but wanted...

We just bought a new Sleep Number bed for our CY3100. I am going to install it tonight (hopefully). I read elsewhere on the forums that some of the models have electrical outlets on the bed pedestal. Does anyone know if the 2013 CY3100 has them? I am not home to check right now. If it does...

I am seriously looking at adding an Magnum Energy inverter/charger to our Cyclone 3100. I have spoken to 2 shops that recommend and install them. The first one recommended the MM1212, but I think the MS2812 would be a better option. One of the dealers had each little part called out with line...

Has anyone stayed at Camp Williams, near LA? We are thinking of it, but I am concerned about the roads getting there. http://campwilliams.com/ Thanks, Jeff

Does anyone have experience with IS from someone other than MorRyde? I really wanted the MorRyde IS, but I can't get to Indiana to have it installed. I am in southern California and MorRyde said it can only be installed by the, in Elkhart. When we travel with our entire zoo, the poor dogs...

We have the 6 Point Level Up on our Cyclone 3100 and absolutely love it. I have an intermittent problem that I don't even know where to start looking. when I raise all the legs, everything is fine. After a few minutes, the middle, door side, leg starts to drop slowly. It will drop about an...

Woohoo. I passed my Class A non-commercial test in CA. This time was totally different that the first time (which I failed). I can't fathom why there tests were completely different. The first one was **** near impossible to pass and the second one was so simple, I think my wife could have...

I need to bring my rig to work with me tomorrow, but I have no place to park in our companies parking lot. We are attached to a Town Center though! I have seen big trucks and busses parked their for a few hours at a time. I need to park there all day (7-4:30). I can't find any signs that say...

This would truly be a fun car. I think it would severely limit my time in the trailer. Too bad the Cyclone could not fit it in the garage. https://www.chevrolet.com/2015-corvette-stingray-z06-supercar.html

OK, I get the dumba$$ of the day award! I just picked up my Cyclone from the shop, getting the rear awning LED fixed (finally!). They did a great job. I picked it up after work and really hate having the trailer sit on the street overnight. I have RV parking on the side of the house. I told...

OK, I know I need to post a pic and I will tomorrow. I was having difficulties airing up one of my tires. As I pushed in on the valve stem, I noticed it was leaking. I figured it was probably a bad valve stem and I would take it in to be replaced. After I removed the tire, I noticed about...

I saw a post here the other day about someone setting up a bypass switch to allow the furnace fan to run without using propane. They set a space heater next to the intake and allowed that to be the heat source. Anyone remember that post and who did it? I have looked all over and could not...

We have used our trailer twice in the past few months and ran the generator a few times. This time around, I tried firing up the generator and just a loud clacking noise. It would not start. I tried priming and repriming and starting and restarting. I also had an issue with the auto leveling...

Second trip out. San Diego again. Got here, got setup. Now drinking port and eating cheese!

I know there is a low point drain that I have been using, but is there faster way to drain the tank? My neighbor with SOB trailer has a large dump valve (like our grey/black water). Am I missing something, or is there no fast way of emptying the fresh water? I guess I could open the valve...

We are making our first trip EVER!!!! We are staying at the KOA in Chula Vista, CA. Got in yesterday and everything was great, other than the truck did not fit in the space after I unhitched. So had to part truck in general parking, but that is OK. I am not planning on using it! No issues...

OK, I bought my Cyclone out of state because the local dealer did not want to sell one too me. I had a small list of warranty items and e-mailed the selling dealer. They never got back to me, so I took it straight to Heartland. I was told I can go anywhere for the list I had (except one...

I am still going through the Cyclone and testing systems out. I finally got the propane tanks filled yesterday ($66). I put them back in, hooked them up and smelled for leaks. No leaks. Good to go. This morning, i turned the fridge to cool on propane and lit the stove burners. All appeared...

We have our brand new Cyclone 3100 ready to go. I wanted to take it to the scales and weigh it. I also have a 2013 3500HD that was due for its first oil change. I figured get the truck serviced and make sure everything is ready to pull this large trailer. I informed service that I woul be...

Still learning this new Cyclone 3100. Any ideas what this bright white switch labeled up/down is?

I am trying to figure out the awnings. I have 3 awning on my new Cyclone 3100. None of them work. What is the trick? They are power awnings, so according to the manual you just need to press and hold the switch. Tried and it does not work. None of the breakers are tripped. All other...

RCA cable to TV in Garage Anyone know the source of the RCA cable to the garage TV? I have the antenna feed working, but there is also a coax connection that I have no idea what it is for. Thanks, Jeff

I just got my new 3100 this morning. As we are going through everything, I am noticing i can't get my bedroom or garage a/c to run. Both have thermostats that have power. When I select either fan or cool, I hear a click, but nothing happens. My main unit works. When the main is running, I...

Wow, I can't believe how giddy I am today. We are waiting for the arrival of our new 3100!!!! It left Ohio on Wednesday, got caught up in storms in Texas yesterday and just entered AZ an hour or so ago. I wish they could drive 80! So now I have to wait till 10pm tonight, or tomorrow morning...

Has anyone ever attempted to reverse the sliding glass door on their trailer? We have ordered the 3100, and just saw that the sliding glass door opens from the outside in. I would like the door opening to be in the center of the trailer, rather than on the outer edge. With the pop-out in, I...

Good morning all, I finally got confirmation that our new 3100 will be delivered on June 16th!!!! Now I need to figure out what tools I *NEED*. Reminder, we are new to camping and towing (anything can help :)). I am sure the list is long, so let's try and keep it simple. What are the...

Has Heartland started equipping the Cyclones with LED lighting? I know the technology is here, though a little pricey. I just ordered a 3100 last week and wanted to know if I needed to plan on swapping out bulbs. If there is an option to have it done at the factory, I would do it in a...
