    Can altitude affect slide hydraulics?

    I've seen several discussions regarding slides coming out on their own and the suggestion that there may be an internal seal leak. This may very well be my problem. I'm asking about the effect of altitude on the hydraulics because the slide room has done this only a few times. I just finished...

    3160EL MCD Shade Privacy

    We feel the same regarding the large window space and open feel. I certainly wouldn't add valences between the windows. It's just that after three years of use the shades have become a little twisted and don't lay as flat as they used to. I've thought about some kind of clip or something to hold...

    3160EL MCD Shade Privacy

    I was going to post in Window Treatments but I believe this problem may be unique to the Bighorn 3160EL. On the door side slide there are three windows, each with their own MCD shade. But there are only side valences on the outside of the three windows. So at the 5-6" gap between windows the MCD...

    sealing a small hole in outside wall

    This is the forward awning mount, nowhere near the slides. I just had the wiper seals replaced on the door side slide. The slide wasn't installed centered and tore up one of the wiper seals.

    sealing a small hole in outside wall

    I've been searching for the source of water on the carpet inside my bedroom linen cabinet on my Bighorn 3160EL. It appears to be where the awning motor wires enter the trailer through the forward awning mounting bracket. The wires come through a thumbnail sized hole in the bracket attached to...

    No power to antenna

    Well my workaround didn't work. Whether I use the booster in the closet or the one supplied with the Jack, the LED on the underside of the antenna head doesn't light. Time to start pulling panels and checking connections in the wall and ceiling.

    No power to antenna

    Thanks to all for the guidance and suggestions. I wanted to be certain first off that I can use the Jack booster safely as long as I turn off the built-in at the wall (i.e. Light off). I unscrewed the plate at the wall but it's so crowded I can't even pull the connectors out of the hole to see...

    No power to antenna

    I have a 2015 Bighorn and have never gotten good reception over antenna while cable has always worked fine. I replaced the original AntennaTek batwing with a King Jack and I see that, even though the light is on at the booster in the closet and the fuse is good, no light is on at the King Jack...

    Making a better pantry in a 3160EL?

    Or 3160 came with a kitchen pendant light on a single rod. At the PDI it was hanging by the wires. It came loose again on our first two trips so our dealer replaced it with another flush mount LED light which we much prefer. I see the new ones have two rods so they probably don't swing as much...

    SOLVED: Norcold no 12V, no cold

    Re: Norcold no 12V, no cold Turned out to be a disconnected wire on the back side of the main fuse panel to the refrigerator fuse. So, as you said, no 12V to the fridge. That's not the first time we've had something not connected or poorly connected from the factory on this rig and I'm becoming...

    SOLVED: Norcold no 12V, no cold

    Re: Norcold no 12V, no cold Jim, I'm not familiar with any 12V breakers; just the 12V fuses and 120V breakers inside the coach. Are the 12V breakers on the bulkhead behind the batteries? Is there a specific breaker for the fridge circuit as other 12V things are working.

    SOLVED: Norcold no 12V, no cold

    We arrived in camp and connected to shore power. The fridge switched from Auto LP to Auto AC as it should. About an hour later we noticed the display was off and no light inside. The fridge won't start. Checked the fuse. It's not blown but when I pulled it, the indicator LED didn't come on so...

    Doors Shifted?

    So I, manually levelled the 6-point Level-Up. The entry door seems good now but the pantry is still off/tweaked. Everything else seems fine.

    Doors Shifted?

    I'm not sure what has happened. I have a new Bighorn 3160EL. Spent 2 weeks in it then took it in to get a few things fixed. Just arrived at our destination on our 2nd trip and the entry door and screen seem to be misaligned and stick. Then we found the kitchen pantry door jammed shut. It was...

    Big Horn 3160 - Organizing the Pantry

    We just got our 3160 a couple weeks ago. Sitting here at San Clemente State Park watching the sun set into the Pacific and contemplating the same issue. I'm thinking of using an appropriate sized cargo net and attaching hooks to each shelf. It would be quick to put up and take down and not...

    SOLVED: Luke warm water

    Re: Luke warm water Can I say how much I love these forums and this group? We're one week into our first trip with our new 3160EL Bighorn and suffering through luke warm showers. A quick search led me to this thread. Closed the outside shower knobs and instant hot water. Thank you all. Once...
