    Here we go again!

    from what i remember, it was suggested to turn your fridge on around 6pm. this would put the unit in defrost mode during the night and not during the heat of the day.

    Ti discussions

    You will have to trace it back from the fridge till you find it. Heartland puts them where they can, your job is to find it. Normally behind the wall in the mess of wires and tubing behind where all the water connections are located.

    corner cupboard over sink

    If you have paneling on that wall, take the moulding off, and remove that sheet of paneling so you can see what is there. Notch the studs or somehow add a piece of plywood to give you something to screw or nail to. Replace paneling and enjoy or cry over your work. I had to remove a sheet of...

    Hey jay, you still in cajun country eating those crawfish? On the sat. Dish you have. I'm thinking of putting a small piece of plywood on each end of the roof and fix up some kind of mounting bracket on it. That way i could move it from one end of the rv to the other to miss some trees. What...

    electrical - step light on Landmark

    Normally grab the lens in the middle and squeeze a little on both sides, should pull down and off. Similar to the regular lens cover on the smaller 12 lights in your rf.

    Bedroom slide out pops out 3" on its own?

    3 times in the last 2 months or so, we have noticed when our rv is in storage, the bedroom slide out pops out about 3" on the bottom. Looks like somebody just bumped the switch and the bottom started out. After the first time, we figured we forgot to fully put it in all the way. After the 2nd...

    kitchen plugs and bathroom plugs don't work

    If it is not the gfi, turn every breaker off and back on to double check them. Fine line sometimes from being tripped and on. Especially when the factory puts them on the floor where you have to get on your hands and knees to even see them. Then take cover off the breaker box with power to rv...

    Finally Sealed the Deal on 3055RL

    On your inspection, if it has a switch, valve, or lever, turn it on and be sure it does what it says it will. Push it, open it, close it, raise it, because there is something that will not work. Mr murphy and his family work at most all the plants in the usa, he forgot to do one little thing to...

    ATF: Bighorn - Living RM TV

    If yours is like our Elk Ridge, you'll need a special screw driver to get it off. If I remember right it has those security screws that take the allen type wrench, with a hole in it, as where you put the screw driver in, there is a sort of pin in the middle. TRY HARBOR FREIGHT FOR A CHEAP...

    Champion Brand Generators and other off brands

    buy a honda, it starts, makes less noise than "any thing" on the market, parts are everywhere you go, easy to pick up and handle up to a certain size, they will outlast the made in china stuff. need a part for the chinese stuff in the middle of west texas, good luck.

    Generator questions

    you can pick up and handle the 2000 size and can't the 3000 size. That is the biggest issue to me. Get a honda, you can't beat it, for quality. Make or install the marine fuel tank fuel system and it will run them all night.

    Dometic 4-door Refrig.

    Put a thermometer in freezer and fridge and monitor the temps and see what they are. Do you have the temp set on the unit to the coldest? I think #5 is the coldest setting, put it on this and go from there.

    Electric Power Reel

    Don't understand what its protecting. IT IS PROTECTING THE COPPER WIRE, THIEVES WILL PULL IT OUT, CUT IT OFF, SELL IT FOR COPPER SCRAP AND BUY DOPE WITH THE MONEY. THEY ARE STEALING COPPER WIRE FROM NEW HOUSES UNDER CONSTRUCTION, BRAND NEW AC UNITS ARE ALSO BEING STRIPPED OF THE COPPER.

    Portable Ice maker? Any Thoughts?

    MY ADVISE IS IF YOU GET ONE BE SURE IT ALSO STORES THE ICE. SEVERAL ON THE MARKET MAKE ICE, BUT DOES NOT HAVE ANY ROOM IN IT TO STORE IT. WE HAD ONE A WHILE BACK AND IT WAS ABOUT 24" x 24". WE HAD IT IN THE CLOSET IN THE BEDROOM. KEPT THE DOOR CLOSED AND REALLY NEVER COULD HERE IT WHEN IT DUMPED...

    Refrigerator Stopped Cooling

    Jim - the fridge just wanted some attention. It may be just a glitch in the computer board, loose wire, or it may be a female fridge. You know they will always give you trouble. You heard that old saying, if it has *its or an engine it will give you trouble. Hopefully it was just a glitch and...

    RO water filter

    Go to homedepot/lowes, buy the standard water filter housing which uses the 10" long charcoal filters. This will work, takes out the dirt/trash, smell/taste. Change the filter about once a year whether you need to or not. Ametek is one brand and there are many others, the filter elements are...

    At the risk of sounding like a newbie...question on propane tanks

    The black plastic part (flat looking) on the top, looks to be pointing to the left to me. Mine is a little different. See if you can turn it to the right, to see it is is a lever. If it does move to the right, then put it back to the left. The green on the gauge below, is telling that both tanks...

    Disconnected Bolt Came Out of Black Tank

    Compare it to the toilet bolts in home depot/lowes/walmart next time you go there. If no match, bring it to a good ole time hardware store and tell the oldest clerk there, you need 100 of those bolts. He will find out what it is real quick.

    Looking for information on RV 'Coaster' Livingroom chairs....

    Our New MESA

    Kenny, Great and valid observation on the refer door! Note however that the Landmark is standard with individual slide room controls, so goosing the door side slide out a bit will gain you access to the left side of the refer. Not as simple and not always possible to do, but just tossing out...

    Changing tail light

    The only thing I have noticed with the high count LED lites are that some of the LEDS seem to burn out quickly leaving blank spots in the lite. DANG, I THOUGHT THE WHOLE POINT FOR THE LEDS WAS THAT THEY LASTED FOR A LONG TIME?

    Our New MESA

    Love the paint job. Love the large counter top around the lavatory. Love the large shower, tv in bedroom is huge, like the new fireplace. Only minor thing i don't like is the fridge can't be opened to get a drink when you are driving down the road, without opening the slide out.

    Torque your Nuts!

    With alum. Rims you need to torque a new rv, (or when you change a flat!!) every 50 miles for the 1st 250 miles. Then every now and then. Don't forget to torque them after you change a flat. (experience, mine came off and rolled right past us).
