Over the past couple of weeks, when I operated my front jacks, I noted that upon upon retraction of them while hooking up to my truck, they stopped retracting before being full up. I jockey’d the switch a little and they started working again. Finally got the all the way up. I thought my switch...
Our Bighorn has an issue with the metal wrapped slide toppers installed by the dealer. When extending one of the slides, the topper jumps over the top metal trim, resulting in the topper roll resting on top of the slide, which is obviously a problem. This has now happened to two of my slides. It...
Our Bighorn, like many, has the auto leveling system controls behind one of the basement storage doors. However, also like many other Bighorn units, the front Lippert jacks can be independently raised or lowered with the front rocker arm switch, which is particularly used for hooking up and...
I had to drop a short section of the Cloroplast when replacing my refrigerator ice maker line with stainless braided line. When I dropped the liner, I noticed an unconnected white Romex electrical line hanging loose under the belly area near the refrigerator/tank area. I checked I this line and...
Our RV dealer replaced our main awning with a metal wrapped awning (wrong one came on it when it was received by dealer). When the awning is fully extended, the rain flap is no longer positioned such that it can be used - in other words, the flap seam is too far up on the main awning material to...
I have a Bighorn 3970RD and want to replace my ice maker line with a more durable SS braided supply line. I keep hearing that I need a 25' line but that seems pretty long - I'm thinking more like 20'. I don't want to pull the old line to check the length in case I need it to fish the new line...
Right now it is getting into the lower 30's and upper 20's here at night and it has become apparent that there is a challenge for me in keeping the rear living area of our Bighorn warm enough without baking us in the bedroom/bathroom. It can be especially warm in the bedroom and bathroom, but...
I'm looking for input regarding the best wax to use on the full body paint job we have on our new Big Horn. I have long been an advocate of synthetic waxes, staying away from pretroleum-based products. Any recommendations?
I am thinking about foam sealing that big hole cut in the flooring under my BH sink - seems to me that this could provide an entry point for ants, etc. Does anyone see an issue with doing that?
I need help or advice in winterizing my unit. I bypassed the hot water heater, drained it via removing the anode rod, then turned my water valve selector to Sanitize/Winterize. I set up my suction hose into a 5 gallon bucket of anti-freeze - all set, right? Nope. When starting the pump, I cannot...
Our new BH unit finally came in this week. It has one of the paint selections available, and it sat beside another special order unit with the other color option. Basically, the only difference is our unit has a platinum stripe and the other unit has a maroon stripe - the other colors are all...
We just traded up from a 2016 Bighorn model 3270RS to a 2017 Bighorn model 3970 RD. The 2016 unit has a dry weight of 11,965 lbs and a GVRW of 15,500. Our new unit jumps both of these numbers up to 13,950 lbs for the dry weight and a GVWR of 16,000 lbs. Our dealer installed a 16k rated Reese...
We just ordered a Bighorn 3970RD in mid-August. We know for sure that it has all the new features of the newest 2017 model, such as leg less dining table, facia LED lighting,etc. According to our dealer's factory contact, our unit doesn't come off the line until Sept 16th, then to paint for...
