I have a Suburban hot water heater in my 2010 3055 Bighorn. Recently when I turn it on the electric side, the water gets hot and stays that way. In the morning the water is barely warm. If I turn it on propane it is always hot. If I turn the propane off, let it cool, and try the electric side it...

Rod & Kelly We will be bringing some sticky wieners as a side dish. Bob & Ann

Hey Rod, The Brakes and Bearings, and the Appliances classes sound good. Also Ann says we want shirts if you have them. Man 2x and women Large. Thanks, Bob

I did some more troubleshooting and I believe that the problem is my converter. 1. I turned the power off to the converter. 2. I measure my voltage at the battery, it 12.6 volts. 3. turned on a couple of dc lights. 4. After a couple of hours my voltage had dropped about .2 volts to 12.4...

OK, with my converter on and 2 dc light on for about an hour, my voltage at the battery was 11.6 volts. I turned the lights off and my voltage went to 13.6 volts which means my converter is working but maybe not correctly. This might all be related to my unknown power draws I am going to look...

OK, I am back home and doing some more troubleshooting. I load tested the battery again and checked the cells, all good. I turned off my converter and turned on 2 dc lights, in about 2 hours my battery was reading about 10.5 volts. I used an external charger to again charge my battery and...

Thanks PORTHOLE. I am registered.

Didn't get an email and can not find a link? Bob

I wonder why I can not find a link to the registration? Bob

The batteries were checked using a load tester. I checked my cells to see if one of them was had a bad cell, all were good. I will turn some lights on to discharge it and test the cells again. I will then turn my converter off and charge them with an external battery charger. We will see...

The converter in my 2010 3055 Bighorn doesn't seem to put out full power. I noticed this when I was at home and plugged in that my interior DC lights would gradually go dim and my battery monitor would drop to the lowest reading. I checked all my circuit breakers and none of them were tripped...

I have had blow out with 4 of my towmax. I am going to go to light truck tires, I don't need a lot a carry capacity. One of the blow outs did some damage to the side of my bighorn which the insurance company covered.

We almost waited too late. A and B loops were full and C and D loops were almost full. We got in to site 41, will be arriving on the 15th and leaving on the 20th. Don't think we will be rafting. See you then.

thanks, I'll look at them. Bob

I had it looked at locally and it was a broken weld. I decided to get it fixed locally because it was cheaper than the cost of diesel to drive to Goshen. They did a good job for under $1000 and even touched it up a little when it needed it. Any problems and I can take it back to get it fixed. Bob

I have been looking at the floorplans for the Bighorn. I plan on upgrading in the next couple of years from my 2010 3055rl. but I really want the bathroom to be open and the commode in its separate room. None of the floorplans I looked at had the open bathroom, do you have any plans to have it...

Great job Rod and Kelly. I think this was the best rally yet. It was nice to see old friends and make new friends. Can't wait for the next one.

Welcome Rod & Kelly Ditrich, I glad to see we finally have a Washington State Chapter Leader. I made my reservations today (2/15/13). We are in site 41 its a pull through, but theres not much left. We will see you in Monoitor. Bob and Ann Williams

I have a crack in my fiberglass below my bedroom slideout. When I was in Gillette one of your tech supervisors said the crack started from one of the screws and probably was not frame damage. When I return home I went to my repair shop to get it fixed and they filled it. It didn't last, so I...

I want to replace my uncomfortable mattress for a new one. I thought it was a RV king (72x80), but when I measured it, it was 70x80. Is this right and if it is do I have to have it made special or are they sold standard.

Sounds good. We are planning on being there.Bob and Ann

I had the same problem with my power reel, there is no easy way to roll up the power cord. I was lucky, my local rv mechanic fixed my motor for me. Bob

Anyone going to the Gillette Rally from the Seattle area?Bob Williams

I had the same problem with my jacks. I used the manual crank rod to get it unstuck then lubricated the jack screw, no problem since then.

The reply from annwil is from me. I logged in under her name by accident. Thanks.

My electical cord reel "ON" button got stuck on. I unstuck it when I notice it, now my cord reel doesn't work. I checked my fuses and they were all good. Is there a circuit breaker someplace or do I need a new motor? Is there a way to manually rollup the cord or do I have to feed the cord in and...

We called and reserved a site, don't know which one they will give us. They didn't ask for a credit card, so I hope we have a site when we get there. Bob and Ann

I use to have a set of chocks similiar to these except they were all metal and they have a lever that you pushed down to tighten then up against your tires. They went with my trade-in. Does anyone know where I could get them? Thanks

We plan on being there. Bob and Ann

Thanks for the responses. I have a $500 deductable so I would probably end up paying for the whole think. I think I will just move the step up and put some type of cap on the broken off tube.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

We have live in Bremerton for about 25 years, about 6 of those were in our 5th wheel. The winters are usually mild, but we do have snow quite often. It usually only lasts a couple of days then melts. That said, last year we had quite a bit of snow (8-10 inches) and the cold weather keep it...

I have a 2010 3055 Bighorn. When I exited a gas station, the bottom of my rear ladder hit the ground breaking it off just below the 1 step. The 1st step is now just half way supported by the ladder tubing. I though about removing the step and re-attaching it above the 1st set of supports...

We bought our Bighorn in January while we were in Texas. Grapeview WA is where we hang out in the Spring, Summer and Fall. Since there is no Washington Chapter sign us up in Oregon. Bob and Ann Williams

Re: Houston 2010 Spring Rally We are new Heartland RV owners and would like to attend the Spring TX rally. Is that a problem? Bob Williams

We are the new owners of a Bighorn 3055RL. We purchased it through ExploreUSA in Dallas. We got a good price on the unit and they gave us a good deal on our trade, very easy to deal with. We are doing our PDI next week, but as we looking it over I did notice that the shelf in the desk area was...
