    It's a factory. Push it out, let the customer complain if it's not right. Hopefully they won't find "it." Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Shipping an RV to Heartland?

    I found ruptures in the fiberglass skin of my 2012 Cyclone 4014. Location is the forward, bottom corner of the front bedroom slide. It's very near the pin box on the driver's side (there's another thread detailing the damage that I can see). As an engineer, I'm thinking the absolute worst...

    Another Dometic failure!

    These Dometic units aren't really serviceable from what I understand. When I called Dometic to ask about getting a service manual, I was told that they don't have one... I explained that I wanted it for my HVAC professional Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    2012 Cyclone model 4014 Mystery Crack in the outer wall fiberglass

    I'm not familiar with the structure under the skin. I initially thought "frame" and the other item that was mentioned was "aluminum tubes." Do the aluminum tubes run vertical or horizontal? Doesn't Lippert make all the steel chassies? Any structure added is Heartland? Thanks to all for the...

    2012 Cyclone model 4014 Mystery Crack in the outer wall fiberglass

    A crack / rupture has developed in the lower front corner of my bedroom / bed slide, forward on the driver's side. It is nearly identical with where my tailgate is on my truck. I checked - there was no impact between the top of the top of the truck bed and the bottom of the trailer. I called...

    Going insane

    I completely empathize with you. I work for the military - and I really expected the equivalent of an Operator's or Technical Manual (TM) when I shelled out big dollars. Nothing even comes close. The only company that I know of that will share schematics freely is Winnebago ( i have poked...

    Which tape to use on Maxxfan Deluxe install (Dicor, butyl or putty)?

    That could've been my plan until everything started to break as I took the insect screen out. Brittle, uv-damaged plastic was crumbling in my hands. All of the locking tabs broke and I'm no happy with the fan performance, so I'll take the gamble Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Which tape to use on Maxxfan Deluxe install (Dicor, butyl or putty)?

    My bathroom roof vent lid got blasted in a recent storm - 2 fist-sized holes! Made a temporary repair with some beautiful, colorful duct tape that the Mrs had stashed in her craft kit. The original was crappy/cheap and began crumbling when I tried to remove the screen... Time for a...

    RM1350 Runs better on propane than electricity?

    I've got a 2011 mfg Dometic RM1350 4-door fridge in a 2012 Cyclone 4014. I had the electricity off today for about 6 hours (for other problems) and noticed the temperature of the refrigerator dropped on propane (~39°F). The temp climbs a few degrees on the electricity (~45°). I'm in Upstate NY...

    50 amp plug heat with a/c

    I've noticed that the 50 amp plug (at the pole) gets warm when using one of 2 air conditioners. Thinking it's because of a loose connection somewhere - at the breaker panel or even the ac. Anyone have similar issues to point me in the right direction? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Mine has mostly failed and is due for replacement. I have a 2012 Cyclone 4014 and it came stock with the Pd52. I have no ectrical protection and want to replace this with a current model.

    I recommend the Maxxis 8008 series. I have 6 on a Cyclone toy hauler and I'm religious about checking pressures before we roll. It's a rate occurrence for them to drop 1psi from trip to trip. I've got about 6k miles on them in 2 years with nothing but good news. Sent from my SM-G930V using...
