    SOLVED: Electrical popping sounds

    We sitting in our Bighorn and there was a loud popping sound, followed a few minutes later by four loud popping sounds. We checked everywhere and did not find anything. No fuses blown or breakers flipped...we did smell a faint burning smell but no signs of burning. Anyone had this happen?

    Water coming out of overflow drains

    Been out in our 2015 Big Country 3150 for the past couple of weeks. No issues until two days ago. I noticed water coming out of both overflow drains. Do not use the fresh water tank and keep it empty. Only use city hook up. Any ideas what might be causing this? Thanks.

    We have a new 3150 RL and are out for the first time and trying to play a DVD. We have Sony DVD play and cannot figure out how to get it to play on the television. What in the world are we doing wrong? I'm sure it has to be easy...the wires all seem to be correctly connected. Thanks, Srae

    Hot Water Heater

    First time out in our 3150 Big Country. My old trailer had the switch which read for gas and one for electric. This one has a switch for 12V and one for 120V. Which one runs the electric? I had the 12V switch on thinking this is to run the water heater off the electric, but no hot water.

    Toilet Paper Question

    This is may sound "crazy" but I do have a question about the right toilet paper to use in our RVs. Is "septic safe" the same as using the paper specifically for "marine, rv" use? Thanks, srae

    Tires

    I have a 2011 Big Country. While traveling last week we experienced a blowout on one of the tires. These are the original and only about 18 mths old. The trailer came with the Power Kings. They are ST235/80/R16 E load. I was talking to a service rep when we got back home and he said these...

    A/C Question

    We are getting ready to go on a trip in the HOT part of the year, in Texas anyway, and for a few days will be staying where we have only 30 amp service. Just wondering if both A/Cs can run and you just have to be careful of other usage, or if only one at a time can be run on the 30 amp service...

    Just Got New BC3250TS

    We took our new BC out over the week-end and enjoyed it so much. Some minor, and I do mean minor, things to adjust but over-all no problems. We did notice that the ceiling fan does not put out much air even when standing directly under it. This is our first ceiling fan so this may be typical...
