    Norcold 1210 Floating clog; new cooling unit

    Had the exact same thing happen to us. Funny thing is ours was also 8 months old when it quit. After almost two months we finally got the new cooling unit and had it replaced. Ours cooled down pretty quick. The tech finished up about 8pm and by 6am the next morning it was cold. Our tech said it...

    Bypass Phoenix?

    We are in Benson Arizona off I-10 headed for Southern California. My question is, has anyone taken the bypass around Phoenix. According to my map it looks like you take I-8 to 85. Just curious about the road conditions. Any help would be much appreciated.

    The Towmax Gremlin strikes again!

    I drove directly from the dealer to my local tire shop (180 miles) and had the G614s put on. After reading all the issues on this forum, I wasn't taking any chances. I was amazed at how weak the sidewalls were on the Blowmax compared to the 614s. The tire shop bought the Blowmax for 60 bucks a...

    NORCOLD Troubles

    Update on Frig. As soon as it started working again it quit. Sooo Had to go through a series of tests before Norcold would send a cooling unit. Had to run 2 days with the thermistor unhooked on electric and two days of the same on propane. Got nothing on either one. Everything works fine it just...

    Ok, I need some advice here. We returned to our rig on Sunday after being in Missouri for Christmas to find our Frig stopped working and all our food was ruined. I checked everything I knew to check, read the manual, checked this forum to no avail. So I called Heartland and they said to go...

    2015 CY4100 Bedroom TV Mount Location

    There are studs to mount to. My dealer installed mine. If you put a backer board in there I doubt the tv will slide out. It's pretty tight as is. Sorry the pics aren't any better it's hard to get some good ones with the tv attached.

    Supporting the slides??

    We are going to be parked all summer. Should I support the slides with a 2x4 or something down to the ground? The contractor in me says I should but I thought I should ask first. Anything I need to be on the lookout for when parked for several months at a time? thanks

    Sold our Keystone Cougar on consignment with Camping World. 350 bucks up front, you tell them what you want and they price it over that to make a little on the sale. Took about 2 1/2 months but was very easy. Yep......would do it again!

    4100 pin weight

    scottyb, I'm not sure yet on the GVWR. The unit showed up with the sticker showing the axels 6k with a GVWR at 18k. The axles clearly show 7k. My dealer called his rep and it was a mistake so I'm waiting on Heartland to send a new sticker with the right GVWR. I'm assuming it will be 21k but we...

    4100 pin weight

    Ok..... My new cyclone came off the line at 15900. Keep in mind I ordered it with 7000# axels. So let's say I put 3000#s of stuff in it. If I use 20% of the 18900, am I safe to assume my pin weight will be in the neighborhood of 3800? My dually is rated for 4873 for cargo and I am figuring...
