I did go on a trip for 3 weeks and no leaks so that repair did the trick. Thanks again for all the good tips.

Thanks for the advise. I contacted Heartland and they recommended staying with the 50 amp circuit breaker. I bought a couple of them. One to install and one for a spare. Seems to work fine now.

It seems that I read somewhere that Heartland is recommending replacing the 50 amp circuit breaker with a 80 amp circuit breaker.? Where is the circuit breaker located? I have been having trouble when closing my slides. The large slide stops right before it goes in all the way. I wait a...

Thanks for all of the good ideas. I checked all of the items mentioned above this weekend. I even filled the bathroom sink and let it drain to see if that would produce any leaks, no leaks in the sink noticed, no water in the bathroom under the sink. I did find that the fitting on the...

I have a 2009 Big Country 3285. I have a water leak on the left side of the basement. I have pulled out the walls and I do not see anything. I have checked all of the hoses and water lines and have not noticed it. It appears to be intermittent. It has been doing it for about 4 months. I...

I need a new King Pin cover for my 2009 Big Country 3285. How do I go about ordering one?

Does anybody know the wheel (16 in) torque spec? I believe it is 120 to 130 ft lbs? Any ideas? Thanks 2009 Big Country 3250 2006 F350 Lariat

I have a 2009 Big Country and I have the same motor and gearbox. The manufacture name is Venture. Mine did the same thing, I broke one of the plastic tabs that are suppose to keep it from moving too much. What a poor set up. Its amazing they made this item out of plastic. I pulled my motor...

Thanks for all of the information from all of you. That gives me some good ideas.

I was told that my Big Country had the arctic package but during the winter it is extremely cold. I decided to remove the bottom cover in one section of the living room. Much to my surprise there is no insulation and there appears to be several areas that cold air can get in. I am going to...

I had the same problem. The dealer put in a small group 24 in my Big Country. I started having trouble with my converter and was told part of the problem was that it really should have had 2 batteries in the trailer. I ended up replacing with 2 group 27 batteries and had one put in the right...

We added a single hook that goes over a door. We put that over the shower next to sink and it works great for a hand towel. Jim & Margie 2009 BC 3285 2006 F350 Super Duty

I noticed that the Front Leveling Motor came loose. When you raise or lower it moves back and forth and gets up against the bar that runs to both sides. Has anybody ran across this problem? Jim and Margie 2009 Big Country 3285 06 F350 Super Dutuy

We found a water leak on the right side of basement. We were not looking for a leak but when we took the wall out we found two plastic hoses leaking. They were leaking at the 90 degree connections. When I had the wall out I ran water to check all of the other lines. When the wall was out it...

Thanks, I will take a look at that. Jim 2009 Big Country 2006 F350 Super Duty

I noticed last weekend that my front stabilizer motor had came loose and was binding and making noise when either going up or down. I looked it over and I can't see anything broken? I ended up taking a C Clamp and making it tight again. Any ideas? Is there a place I could look at a picture...

I am going to hook up a satellite dish on my 2009 Big Country. I looked in the owners manual but did not see anything listed. I see there are two different sections. I presume one is for the bed room and one for the living room. There are 2 connectors in each section, not sure why two...

Thanks for all of the information. This forum is great. Happy Trailering!!

Thanks for the information. I did take it to my local dealer and he did find some bad grounds. It improved the situation but it did not repair all of the charging problems. Replaced the converter and it did have the charge wizard pendant and it seems to be working well. I appreciate...

The battery would not take a charge. My dealer recommended not using a sealed battery because you can't check the water level. The box could take a group 27 even though the dealer put in a group 24. I went to the larger battery. My previous trailer had 2 batteries and several of my friends...

On my BC 3285 I found my basement floor wet. I removed the panels in the basement to check the water hoses to make sure they were not leaking. I found some interesting things in the basement. Wanted to pass this information on. I did find a hole in the metal frame (2 1/2" X 2 1/2") . It...

I was having trouble with my battery and was told by my dealer that the battery that my selling dealer installed was way too small for a RV with 3 slides . It came with a sealed group 24. I went ahead and installed a deep cycle group 27 and he also recommended installing a second battery which...

I have a 09 BC 3285 and was having a problem with my lights getting real bright and then dimming back down. I took it in while under warranty and when I asked about the problem was told it probably was the converter. Unfortunately it did not act up when being checked so the dealer would not...

I have the same problem with my 3285 and I appreciate the information. I will try a couple of the ideas. Jim Bonhote 09 3285 Big Country 2006 F350 6.0 Diesel Crew Cab Lariat

It seems like our floor is pretty cold during winter months. Is there insulation in the floor? can you add more insulation? Thanks

Thanks All for the advice. I will try try the adjustable air registers and try some of the other suggestions. They sound like good suggestions.

Great pictures. I notice you were in some cold country. How did your trailer perform in the cold weather. I have a 2009 BC 3285 and it seems when it is cold that when the heater shuts off it gets cold, almost like it does not have any insulation. Any ideas? Thanks Jim

I purchased a new 2009 3285. The climate is around 43 degrees. I run my heater to warm up the trailer and as soon as the heater shuts off it feels like it is really cold. Like there is a draft in the trailer. Any ideas? Any problems other Big Country owners noticed. 66Vettster 2009 Big...

TD7298, It is recommended that after you get the tank flushed (don't fprget to close the black tank valve) that you add at least 4 gals of water and chemicals. I usually mix a gallon of water with the right mix of chemical and then add 3 more gals of water. I also use the flush king to do a...

I just purchased a Big Country 3285RL. I was wondering if anybody can comment on the good and bad. :angel:
