    Slide not moving just grinding

    You think in the motor or the gearbox. The motor seems to continue to run.

    Slide not moving just grinding

    Thanks. I had the year, make and model at the end of the post. Wouldn't know where to find the slide model. hoped that was enough.

    Slide not moving just grinding

    My bedroom slide started having difficulties retracting, now that I got it in, I cannot extend it. it moves s bit and then just starts grinding. Is it time to just replace the gear box, for lack of a better word. Here is a video of what I am getting. Thanks hopefully easy. Here is a link to...

    Total Ramp rebuild

    Thanks guys, I did indeed do a search, but to no avail. Thanks for the links, but again, nothing points to the post I was looking for. So, now I am looking for inside info, so I can plan for the rebuild. I am looking to build a gelcoat skin, plywood, aluminum box studs spaced??, with foam in...

    Total Ramp rebuild

    I need to rebuild my ramp. It, as all of them are, is woefully inadequate and honestly dangerous to load my golf cart. the flooring delaminated from the frame etc.... I believe I saw, some time ago a post that walked through the process and i cannot find it. I have seen several, but this one...

    Issues Cropping up

    Well, she is getting older. Problems arising and fixes needed. If anyone has ideas on the following feel free to add any sage advice. 1. Ramp is delaminated, I have read all of the fixes, but she is still holding up to the weight of the golf cart. I would like a solution to getting the top of...

    Landing gear issues

    Thank you all very much, should have gone to the DMM sooner. After trouble shooting backwards, it was one of the mini 50a breakers, those things are crap. Replaced it with 80a breaker and all is well. Again, I wouldn't have know what to check without you all. Thanks. Bruce

    Landing gear issues

    So you think the Trombetta Solenoid is working fine, or should I try replacing it? I can check the wires, just need to get back over there.

    Landing gear issues

    Thx, battery is brand new, like I put it in 5 minutes before and it had a top off charge for a day before I installed it. I will check the wires. I am guessing that the tombetta is the small black elongated piece with the three wires attached to it to the right of the pump. Seems like an easy...

    Landing gear issues

    I posted this before but have a little more info and a video of the issue. Landing gear just stopped working, when I hit the switch i can hear it click, but get nothing. The added info is that the main slide outs are acting the same way. I hear the click and I believe it is the same thing...

    Quick fix (probably)

    Or easy to diagnose. Raised my jacks to hitch, moved the RV and one too unhitch, nothing. I can hear the motor on the power unit clicking, but it is not operating. This is the same whether on battery or the genny. I also have had the issue where the jacks stop until the auto reset breaker kicks...

    F350 - No Lockup

    I posted this before and it has been a while since I was able to work on this problem. Just a brief history to get you all up to speed. I have a HL 4100 King being pulled by a 2014 F350 Dually. I have my gain set at 10 and can not get lock up when test firing it on flat ground. I am going...

    Going through brakes - maybe even a world record

    Thanks guys for all the info. It is the integrated brake controller on a 2014 F350. Looks like I have a little digging to do. I absolutely do not get lock up. Something fishy. I'll let you know what I find out.

    Going through brakes - maybe even a world record

    Just a little clarification. I do conduct a pull test after every hitch up. When I squeeze the trigger on the controller I can feel the brakes work on the trailer and pull the back of my truck down. Even at the game set to 10, I do not feel the brakes engaging when using the brake pedal.

    Going through brakes - maybe even a world record

    All, I am ripping through some brakes on my '14 F350. I am towing a Cyclone 4100 and am easily having to replace my brakes and rotors yearly. Is this normal? The fronts are going fast, and the rears are not long after. Here is my real question. Is my brake controller really doing its job? I...

    2014 Heartland Cyclone 4000 SAT Prewire

    I have a 4100 King. There was NO prewire for the travl'r. I drilled up from the closet right near the off air antennae switch. My drill bit caught a lot of insulation and garbage going up. on the roof I fed the control wire down and used a roof coax plate with a lot of sealant. My roof coil...

    Satellite Prep. What a let down.

    Thanks for the replies, it looks like it is going to be a beer and some cable to get this thing up and running. Last question, in everyones experience, what is the best way to get from the roof to the UDC? Just not a fan of randomly popping holes in the roof. Thanks. The only idea I have is...

    Satellite Prep. What a let down.

    Satellite prep, far from it. I just installed, well last year, my sweet Winegard Travl'r. That part is awesome. What isn't is the complete lack of any sensible wiring within my Cyclone 4100 King. Chaos doesn't even register on the what the ****-o-meter. There is some good news, well not...

    Dometic AC Running Fine, Then Shutting Down Entirely

    Last night ours started doing the exact same thing. Did you ever figure out what was going on and what the remedy was? It would run for about 20 minutes and then shut down. I could cycle it back to fan (kicks on) and then to cool (compressor fires) but then about 20 minutes and then shut down...

    What the **** happened?

    Dan, Ha! you nailed it. I had been switching it back and forth while working on the electrical that I lost track of the position of on and off. Simple, I'm dumb and now it is all ok. Thanks for the common sense.

    I unplugged it from the control unit and it is just sitting there in the cavity.

    Reefer not getting cold - Green fluid

    Yep, total loss on the cooling system. I just ordered an Amish NEW one to replace the Norcold. I followed a youtube video and found it really simple to get the old cooling unit out and prep it for the one being shipped. I love the Internet. Bruce

    What the **** happened?

    I will follow see what I can find given the above advice. I will try to give a little more detail. I hit the slide out button, while starting the genny. Something happened, I cannot remember if I heard a click or not, but the slide stopped moving out which surprised me and I stopped trying to...

    What the **** happened?

    While replacing the cooling unit on my less than 2 year old Norcold 1210, I was starting the Genny when I must have hit the slide out button. Now I have no battery power to the coach. I have battery to start the Genny and then when the transfer switch kicks over I am fine with power (kinda) when...

    Reefer not getting cold - Green fluid

    Sorry it is a NORCOLD 121 Series. I do not smell any ammonia smell, but the fluid was green, a bright green.

    Reefer not getting cold - Green fluid

    All, Camping this weekend, fridge won't get cold. It did last week though. Opened up the outside and noticed a nice pool of fluid on the tray that resembled antifreeze in color. I can only guess this is the coolant. Found a fitting where it seems to have leaked from. What options do I have at...

    Installing A Winegard Travl'r on a 4100 King

    Called HL, NOT prewired other than the COAX coils. Almost unbelievable. A very expensive product with out a simple control wire. The cost of that addition would be minimal, however, the cost of now finding a way to get that into a hidden location in the coach....Ridiculous. This indeed makes a...

    Installing A Winegard Travl'r on a 4100 King

    Thanks. I will call back with my VIN and get the exact location. Next question. What is with the coil? Is it just the feed for the coax and where is the other end? Also how did you route the control wire for the box? Thanks, I want to have as many questions answered as possible before I start.

    Installing A Winegard Travl'r on a 4100 King

    Nope and Nope I called HL and they said that there is not reinforcement plate on the roof, as it is not needed. The support structure of the roof is more than adequate to support the dish. Now the location of the COAX in the roof is another thing. It is supposed to be in the exact same position...

    Installing A Winegard Travl'r on a 4100 King

    Does anyone have experience with this? Where to mount? Where to run the wiring? Where to mount the control box etc...... Any and all help is appreciated. I have read the sticky on Sat systems, nothing specific for the 4100 and the Travl'r. Thanks. Living the Sweet Life at Hershey Camping...

    Water Heater Panel

    During out 8+ hour nut roll drive back from Long Island, my exterior Hot Water Heater Panel Cover decided to take flight (thank God it didnt hit anyone. ) I have been searching for the brand to order a new one. Anyone have any leads on this? Are they all the same? Inquiring minds want to know...

    4100 King - Sofa Sections

    Looks like no one took this on. I tried to remove one, but could not. I unhooked them from each other and thought it was free, but could not get it to slide out. That being said, I did not try really hard nor did I have my full tools with me. I was trying to move the "Stab you in the ***"...

    Final Fix of the Fiasco

    Thanks, It actually looks from the photo that even your bracket has broken free from the slide. I do not think they are supposed to hang down at all, at least mine didnt.

    Final Fix of the Fiasco

    A lot of alliteration there. I am finishing up the final repairs of the damage to the wiring and was sent a new wiring cradle but cannot figure out how it was run. Can someone who is camping with a 4100, snap a couple of pics from under the drivers side living room slide. Especially, how the...

    Credit where it is due!

    All, In regards to my recent explosive event. A representative from Heartland contacted me without any prompting. He worked with me to resolve the wiring issue and also helped me out on some damaged equipment that I did not know was missing from the equation. We all from time to time rant...
