Well I hooked up the camper and was doing my pre-trip inspection and I noticed that I didn't have any running lights and my driver side brake light and turn signal did not work. I checked all of the trucks wiring and I even removed the junction box cover mounted on the hitch. I checked all of...

While this event happened on Labor Day, I thought it might have some interest for those with the Electrical Management System... or thinking about buying one. I had my BH for two years before I finally installed a Progressive Industries EMS 50 HW. In put it in just prior to the trip to the...

Does anyone know why our plug over the kitchen sink just stopped working?? Kettle woked fine and 15 min. later no power. Have checked GFI, plug it self, and breaker. All seem fine. I don't have any power coming to the plug. Is there a junction box in the kitchen area, I would think it would...

Hoping someone with a whole lot more knowledge than I have can give me some pointers. We set up camp in Virginia Beach on Wednesday and everything was fine until sometime Friday. We lost power to the microwave, ceiling fan and all of the 110 outlets in the front end of the camper. The TV...

Need some input, I have been having some problems with my unit's FM radio, that sometime while listening to it and an electic motor is turned on that it causes some static from the motor, ie..mixer ect. I know that on automotive units there once was filters that could be used to eliminate the...

Bryan, Enclosed are two pictures of my electrical panels. It is hard to read the description on the 12 volt panel for positions #7 and #9. Would it be possible to get printed labels, like the Bighorns have, or at lease decipher the handwriting. Thanks 35DSRL Eagle Ridge

On the third day of our last trip, my GFI outlets in the kitchen and bath went dead on generator power. Checked breakers, fuses, and the trip on the GFI outlet. Brought the rig home and plugged it into shore power and the outlets come right up. Nothing on Generator power. Checked the breaker on...

My brother in law owns a Big Horn and is having a problem with his living room slide electrical lights. There is no service at all in the extension. The fuses are working properly. ???

I was de-winterizing my 07 3055 this morning and noticed a small box type device with wires coming out that was taped to the back of the Hot Water Heater. The tape has come loose and I can re-tape it but wondering what it is???/ Doug

We boondock a lot in Arizona in the winter. Our present fifth wheel has three solar panels, an inverter, and four golf cart batteries. We plan on purchasing a Big Country 3250TS. Our dealer has been in contact with Heartland and they do not seem to be interested in pre-wiring for solar from...

When it arrives, will I be able to run my new RV (3670RL Big Horn) at a campground with 30 amp electrical service??? Please tell me I can!!! Sorry, I'm a knucklehead when it comes to electrical.... :confused:

Hey All, I own a 3385 B/H --- Last year my A/C went out but the compressor kept running, I fliped the breaker marked A/C but it wouldn't kill it. I finally had to take the covet off the A/C unit and up-plug it. When i took it to the dealer (no longer in business) he said the breaker i...

had our b/h 3580 at capital RV this past week, one of my issues was, when the bedroom light is on and you turn on the toilet room light, the toilet room light dims, I showed the tech this and he said this is normal because of power draw from the same circuit. Does this sound right ??? Thanks

hi, we just ordered a 2010 3055. could you post a schematic on what 110 outlets go with each breaker? thanks, tom

I was setting up the air mattress on the BH3670 and behind the couch I noticed a 4 inch square electical box on the floor and against the wall. I thought this was odd. No big deal. I was just curious if any else has this in theirs and if anyone knows what it is for.

i am looking at a 3300RLB to purchase. it has a 30 amp service, but is prewired for a second ac. how do you handle the extra load for the second ac on only a 30 amp service? is the wiring between the plug and the main panel capable of converting to 50 amp or would that need to be changed as...

We recently returned from a 2-week trip in our 26RKS. All went well until our next-to-last day on the road. Drove 7 hours, parked for the night with power hookup. The next morning we were unable to retract the slide and went through the heartburn of cranking in the slide by hand - who designed...

I have been reading some camping books. (I know it is better to rely on the real experts and that is why I am asking this question in this forum). A couple of the books suggested testing the 50 amp source (or 30 amp) for ground, polarity, voltage, phase and a couple of other things I barely...

Hi everyone, last night i had a wierd thing happen. My refriderator, washer/dryer, and fireplace outlet all went dead. no fuses or breakers are showing a trip or burned out status. Of course my fireplace is in the back of my Landmark, the fridge is center, and my washer/dryer is in front...

TALKED TO JIM LAST NIGHT AND HE TOLD ME TO PUT THIS INFORMATION OUT FOR ANSWERS. Left Missouri for South Texas on Monday. No problems either Monday or Tuesday. Wednesday, we began to blow secondary fuse for trailer stop lights/turn signals. Also blew the fuse that charges the battery in the...

The outlet is not putting out any juice. All the others seem to be working fine. The GFI plug is working properly and the circuit breaker has not tripped. I guess it could be the fuse, but I don't know what a bad fuse would look like. I ran a search on the forum, but did not find any...

I absolutely love that the 3210 has so many outlets inside, however, why aren't there any on the curbside exterior? we like to set up our griddle, coffee maker etc outdoors (so we don't lose that new trailer smell :)) and now have to drag an extension cord out to do so.

Does anyone know where we can get an electrical schematic for our Sundance 265rk XLT? We are having problems with the electric ignition on the stove. Thanks for your input!!! Janine :)

Need assistance....Have Bighorn 3400RL, been idle for the summer, been plugged in to 120 volt AC all three months, when I unplugged I have NO 12 electrical system, even when plugged to the truck. Is there a switch or circuit breaker? I've checked all the basics but nothing happens. No 12 volt...
