    How many owners have had their dometic A/C replaced recently due to failure?

    My last A/C was replaced by a small company that provided service while we were parked at a campground. They were an authorized dometic repair service/dealer. You could contact dometic and see if there is anyone in you current area that would provide road service or do a search for the nearest...

    How many owners have had their dometic A/C replaced recently due to failure?

    I did not use the correct word "recall" but Dometic is obviously continuing to sell air conditioners that are failing in short time. If they've corrected the problem as you say then they must be trying to get rid of the junk units on unsuspecting consumers. I had to have my third unit replaced...

    How many owners have had their dometic A/C replaced recently due to failure?

    I'm getting ready to have my second A/C replaced due to not cooling. Is there a known problem that should require a recall? If you only use your RV a few weeks a year you may not experience this problem for several years then it will be too late to have the A/C's replaced due to being out of...

    ATF: Big Country - Is there a Dometic A/C recall?

    There's definitely a problem with these air conditioners. Replaced the main A/C in April 2015 and now the bedroom A/C needs replaced. Plan on having done next month.

    Degraded Living area AC

    I too have a problem with the living room A/C not cooling. I have a digital infrared thermometer and measured the air flow from the nearest vents of both A/C units. The outside temperature is 84 degrees Fahrenheit (not complaining...I'm in south Florida). The bedroom A/C air temperature at the...

    So, No one has a board that is correctly wired? I'd rather rewire myself than take the camper back to the dealer.

    Unable to get lic remote to work

    Update... I had to take and send a picture of the control board to my Dealer in which they forwarded to Heartland before a new board could be ordered. I was willing to replace the board myself. After Heartland approved a new board (I assume Heartland wanted to make sure they were sending the...

    Unable to get lic remote to work

    Thanks for the reply. I was hoping there was something else I needed to turn on. I guess the next step will be contacting the dealer.

    Unable to get lic remote to work

    I have programmed the remote and am unable to get the remote to operate anything. I checked the receiver board and confirmed that there is voltage to the board. I also do not hear any relays clicking. Any suggestions.

    Maintenance Suggestions

    Thanks so much for the quick response. I know I've been very fortunate with few problems on my current fiver as some people have had major issues with the same model. By the way, Forrest River offers a second year warranty on their units for only $150. Do you or anyone know if Heartland also...

    Maintenance Suggestions

    I'm scheduled to pick up my new 2015 3160 later this month. I'm curious, did you have any major issues? 30 items seems like a lot to me. My last camper only had a few issues and I put about 12,000 miles on it during the warranty period.

    Boondocking with Residential Refrigerator

    Thanks everyone . I know there are too many variables to get an exact number. I was just trying to get an estimate and I think danemayer gave me a good starting point in case I stop at a flying J for the night.

    Considering Bighorn 3160EL

    Glad you love the unit. We are picking ours up in a couple of weeks. Do you have the residential refrigerator? If so, have you camped without shore power? And if so, any comments, suggestions?

    Boondocking with Residential Refrigerator

    As a newbie to this forum (not RVing), I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this question, however here goes anyway. I haven't picked up my new Bighorn Elite 3160 yet but have a question concerning the residential refrigerator and battery life while boondocking. We almost never...

    Hello new Heartland friends! I am finalizing the purchase of a new 2015 bighorn elite. My tow vehicle is a 2011 gmc sierra 3500HD 6.0 gasser. As long as I don't fully load the new camper I think I should be OK....??? Anything I should be aware of prior to the walk through? Any known problems...
