Walmart. LOL!!! If you buy wet cell batteries, not AGMs, you’ll have to fashion an exit tube from the top of the replacement battery boxes to the existing venting hoses. AGMs don’t need venting because they are sealed

Unless you change the battery boxes, group 27s. I prefer AGMs but other wet cell works If you change out the boxes, group 31s offer more amp hours Unless you’re using lithium then some one else can better answer you

I heard that HL was re-tooling the line so I wonder how it affects the other units made in that building

We don’t have it but many in our winter park did. The dishes were mounted in various places, on the ground, on the picnic table, on a mast, etc. I’m quite sure it’ll perform for you just fine. Like any satellite, you need a clear line of sight

Discount tire balanced mine without asking

Count the bolt holes on each of the jacks and compare them to the corresponding one. Maybe they weren’t mounted evenly

Take off the outside grill and using a Hair dryer should thaw it out Are you parked where the outside temps are below freezing? Is a cold freezing wind hitting that side of the camper? Probably not enough heat being generated by the fridge unit to keep the cavity above freezing.

Likely an Atwood. That brand was in our ‘14 and is in our’17

YouTube is your friend

If you turn the oven knob to “off” out goes the pilot light If you wish to have the pilot light on 24/7, then when done baking return the knob to the pilot position, not off

Sounds like you’re mixing cold water with the heated water from the tank. Check your installation of the replacement bypass valve

Etrailer…replaces the Atwood you likely have now. Replaced ours about a year ago. 2017 Bighorn

We’ve said many times that the design teams, for ALL brands, do not use these rigs. Therefore it looks good on paper, but in reality many rigs lack features that are necessary and useful to those of us that spend many months or live FT in our units

That’s correct. Photo from 2018. Have had another one tear since several years ago but I blame that on operator error. LOL!! I forgot to relieve the water pressure in the system Like I said, kept the first one for parts so I have extra orings

Contact HL customer service and ask specifically what that means

The valve has to be removed from the housing to apply plumbers grease to the orings. Remove the handle. An allen wrench is required to loosen a small set screw on a locking ring. Once that’s done, slowly pull and twist back and forth to remove the valve core I have had to replace mine but kept...

Reservation made 10/8-15 Site 86 No T-Shirts

Is it allowing water to bypass? Maybe one of the o-rings is binding Maybe it’s drying out. Regardless, Remove it to inspect and lubricate it with ample plumber’s grease

If you look closely you’ll see the frame can be DIS-assembled. I removed our tri-fold sleeper sofa in pieces. We replaced ours with a household sofa that came in a box. It’s pieces fit through the narrow door and around the island

Do you have one of these to see what is or isn’t draining? It’s also a back flushing valve

No

Likely a GFI outlet tripped. In our bighorn the “master” GFI is in the bathroom

6 leaf 3500# springs. Broke one this spring. Replaced all four

If you want it fixed right, it’ll likely involve invading the belly to access the valve body. Likely one of two scenarios. 1-valve not closing completely from either debris or out of adjustment. Have you back flushed it externally from the exit? If it’s not debris blocking the blade valve then...

morryde has x braces that attach to the hangers across the width of the frame I have one on the rear set of hangers https://www.rvupgradestore.com/X-Factor-Performance-Crossmembers-Kit-p/15-9011.htm

Join the club. We have same. I figure they are stress fractures from the past several years now. Have seen posts on FB about this and it’s not unique to HL. I plan to do nothing because as you say, new door. New door won’t match up very well against a 7 yr old exterior

Ask Heartland. One came with both of our Bighorns

If you use the search engine option here on the forum, you’ll find numerous posts and discussions about “frame flex”. It was a common problem on lippert frames built in the early 2010’s

Is the drain pipe for the washing machine capped? Fumes from the grey tank could be escaping through it. No water in the trap

Take it out and remove the gasket Ultimately I replaced the cheapy Rv model with a good household faucet and drain

Is the fireplace surround the faux stone looking board??That’s what was in our ‘14 Bighorn. It’s relatively robust and won’t break if you’re careful If so it’s one piece cut to fit the area around the fireplace. It’s attached with numerous thin wire nails maybe a staple or two. A thin flat...

Good luck!!

Hydac valve on leading jack

There are multiple Hydac valves. There is one on the front off door side leading jack. This one is for the front jacks. I had strap up both front jacks so that neither one could drift down on travel days The other Hydac valves for the other landing jacks and hydraulic slide outs are in the...

Lippert might. It’s their frame, not heartland’s

I suspect lippert is referring to the Hydac valves. There is one one the front off door side jack. The others in our Bighorn are in the front compartment near the hydraulic pump I believe it’s a 5/16” allen wrench that’s needed. On the end of the valve is an adjustment. Left hand threads. Turn...

Maybe this schematic will help you. Came with our ‘17 Bighorn

And the result was …?

Pack them like others say. If you prefer to use the zerk method, Dexter has a how to YouTube video. If done correctly the seal will not be damaged. I know a few who use that method Not me!!
