    Brakes

    Well, the truck operates as designed. If your build date is prior to Mar 2005, 3 vdc with the vehicle at rest is normal. The IBC will not provide 12 vdc until the vehicle is in motion (1-2 mph). I asked whether the brakes should lock up. The tepid answer was yes, in most cases at slow...

    Brakes

    This is exacerbating. This thread is 6-months old and not a single reply from Heartland. As the Factory, I'd get a quicker reply from the government! Heartland, we're talking the brakes, not some blemish on the counter! The manufacturer of the running gear engineered it to a performance...

    Hitch weights

    Per Heartland specifications, are the hitch weights advertised on the spec sheet the dry pin weight or the maximum? If the max, what is the dry? i.e. for the 3300 QS (guess which model I am a proud owner of), the spec sheet has a max gross weight of 13965 and a hitch weight of 1965. I would...

    How do you drain all the water from the system?

    I have new 2011 3300QS. It has 3x drain lines on the left side underbelly - 2xblue and 1x red. One blue line is foward of the axles - IVO the HW. The other two are aft of the axles. What do these drain? Assume red = hot, will the red drain the HW or just the lines? Does the fwd blue line...
