    Slides temporarily stop while either retracting or extending

    I just had the same problem. The auto parts stores I checked had 50 amp breakers, but the mounting ears were wrong. I ordered 2 from these guys: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PTBVL2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 Less tan $10.00. I was not connected to shore power, so I...

    Water inside Norcold

    My line was plugged at the outside end. Open the lower access panel outside. You should see the end of the line emptying into a small pan. Check the end of the drain hose there.

    RV Lock - special pricing for HOC members?

    Good question! I realize that RV Lock is sending fix-it parts as a courtesy. However - I was informed on June 24th that my replacement part was shipped. So far the tracking number supplied has been showing that the shipping info was provided to the Postal Service but that there is no other...

    Blue Streak Toiler Chemical System

    The cheapest shipping to me is $14.95. That comes to $38.10 or $12.70/bottle. Buying direct from bluestreak is about $10/bottle, including shipping.

    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: AR, Mountain View - 5/2/2014 to 5/4/2014

    It's not too early to make your reservations for this rally. Both Billy Summit and I are at the park and planning some activities. I don't have an exact schedule yet, but we are planning a concert night at the Folk Center auditorium and a tour of Blanchard Cavern. I'm sure we'll have a potluck...

    Changing my Mobile Internet Service Plan

    Our aircard contract with Verizon expired in December. Since then we switched to the same Millenicom plan as Jim. The hotspot we were sent is a Pantech MHS291LW branded as Verizon and the coverage is identical to what we had with the 4G aircard. We knocked our Verizon data plan back to 250...

    Thanks to all for your input! I tend to favor 2wd rather than 4x4. Any thoughts there?

    Need experiences - DRW vs SRW, Long vs Short bed

    We need a new truck for hauling our Landmark (ours was stolen over the Holidays - another story...). We like Ford diesels and you will probably not change our minds on that. We have had 2 F350s over our 5th wheeling lifetime. Both were duallys with crew cabs and long beds. We've got a couple of...

    FIXED (bad board) - Suburban furnace won't start

    Re: Suburban furnace won't start We had trouble with ours last year. It turned out to be the furnace motherboard. A mobile service tech replaced the board in about 15 minutes. Cost us for the service call, but Heartland (or Suburban) covered the part through the service tech.

    Yeti Package

    With so little documentation and experience with the Yeti package available, wouldn't it make sense to put a warning sticker near the tank heater switch cautioning about turning them on without water in ALL the tanks?

    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: AR, Mountain View - 5/2/2014 to 5/4/2014

    There's a lot to do in Mountain View. The Ozark Folk Center State Park is right next door to the campground. There are craft shops, representing the way things were done a hundred years ago in the Ozarks, that is open during the day. The Folk Center has a great auditorium in which folk musicians...

    Leak at 3 way behind hot water bypass

    I usually consider the pieces of PEX on the old fittings as goners. So I slice the PEX above the barbs and just twist it off. Get a length of PEX from a hardware store and replace the pieces that were attached to the old valve.

    Leak at 3 way behind hot water bypass

    We had a similar problem with our 2013 Landmark. It turns out that the PEX fittings that go into the valve body did not have the rubber seals that most fittings of this type have. I replaced our valve at the Goshen Rally and noticed this difference between the original valve and the replacement...

    Commode Burp

    We have this happen occasionally. The tank is not full, but it seems there is an accumulation of debris in the tank under the flush pipe. To clear it I fill the toilet until it's nearly full then flush. Usually I get a burp the first time (and have a bit of splashed water to clean up...)...

    ATF: Landmark - Slides & Levelup Quit

    I also have an early 2013 Landmark that quit similarly. I found an in-line fuse in the front compartment hade blown. I used one of the spare 15A fuses from inside to get going again. When you open the front compartment, look for a thick red wire with a black blob attached to it. Open the blob up...

    Dual Thermostats - How do they operate together

    The key to understanding the Dometic thermostat is knowing that it is dumb as a board. You have to manually change the mode for each programmed time to switch it between heat and a/c. For example, the weather we are having now is warm during the day and very cool at night. So I set the living...

    Water heater--check valve removal BROKE

    I just went through this a couple of days ago, too. I used a cheap soldering iron to melt the plastic in a few places. The plastic didn't flow out, but became brittle enough to chip out with a screwdriver. After getting all the chunks out, I cleaned the threads with a thread tap. Going to...

    Looking for campground in New Orleans

    There are 2 parks in Slidell on Old Spanish Trail. We stayed at Pine Crest. We liked it. It's only 20 minutes or so to downtown New Orleans. The other park is just a little ways down the road from Pine Crest. We haven't stayed there, but it looks like a nice park (I've driven by it several...

    RV Park near Rapid City

    We've stayed at Heartland Campground in Hermosa. It's about 11 miles south of Rapid City. They honor a lot of discount plans: Escapees, Passport America, Good Sam, etc. Not fancy but very affordable. It's also close to one of the highways into Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore.

    Toilet Burps

    We've recently had a similar problem. The toilet keeps burping, even after a tank cleanout. I tend to agree with kakampers about something stuck near the end of the pipe where it enters the tank. If I keep running water into the tank after flushing it sounds like the tank is filling up fast...
