slide

I have a 1.5 year old 2009 BC 2950RK with a bedroom slide leak when it rains on the side of the slide next to the bathroom. I checked all around the slide, roof, side and I can't find anything that sticks out. The only thing I noticed was the gap on the slide out is not the same. When the bed...

I just was reading another post and it reminded me to ask about this. I've always had electric slides before now, so the hydraulics are new to me. Is there a rule of thumb for how long to hold the button in after the slides extend or retract...especially retract? I don't want to break anything...

The slide topper over the sofa/dinette, has never been tight. It constantly has a belly in it. It holds water all of the time. Can they be adjusted? The one over the bedroom is taught all of the time. Any suggestions?

We will be taking delivery of our 2010 Big Country 3250 RTS later this week. One thing that I'm not totally sold on is the fact that all three slides work off one switch. I was told that in previous years the Big Country had switches or valves that allowed you to extend or retract the slides...

I would like to know if the slides on the 2010 / 3410 are insulated . I'm about to buy one and may be spending a couple of winters in a cold (below freezing) area.:confused:

Last weekend we were camping and were assigned a very unlevel site. I was able to level our Landmark from front to back but could not get level from side to side. The coach felt okay to walk around in but was still a few inches out. That night it poured. I'd guess 1-2 inches in an hour...

My 287 RL does not have a slide topper and I want to add one. What is the best brand? I notice a difference in price between brands and wonder if "you get what you pay for" or is there no real difference in quality. What has been your experience and what brand is best, as in durable? Thanks, Guyton

Does anyone have experience or opinions about mounting an awning on a slide out? Not slide toppers but actual full sized awnings. I have seen several rigs with awnings on their curb side slides to extend the shade available. I am curious about whether that is a good practice or not. It seems...

I just found the hydraulic cylinder that operates the slide in our bedroom leaking. The cylinder has a pin hole in the side of it at the point of where the upper (closest to the rod) hydraulic line attaches. When the slide goes out the pressure increases and the fluid squirts out the pin hole...

We have a problem with the bedroom slide door. It came off the track and we don't know how to get it back on. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We have a 3055 BH 2009. Thanks in advance, Di

So during our trip to Myrtle Beach this April I notice in the mirror that the driver's side mid coach marker light appears to be vibrating while we drive. I think it must be my imagination. At our first stop in PA for fuel I get a good look and discover that the bottom, tin panel on the kitchen...

The bedroom slide on my new 2008 3212SB seems to be closer to the rear side of the opening than the front. The outer seal is not touching the front of the slide when it is out. Is there an adjustment for this or is this normal. I haven't had it open in the rain yet to see if it leaks, but it...

Hi - Does anyone have any recommendations on putting slide covers on? I am getting tired of climbing on top the camper to sweep off the slide before I pull them in. Also I have a Big Country 3250TS 2009. Does anyone know which size covers I would need? Thanks, Jason

I hope I posted this in the correct section, if not, moderators please move. Thanks. During the recent wet weather, our slide has been in the extended position. Yesterday we found water on the floor, under the dinette seat towards the trailer front. Upon investigation, I found a joint, that when...

My bedroom slide has been leaking for a while now. Its only happens during heavy rain. The carpet will get wet between sink and bed. If you open up the storage door under the bed slide you can see water dripping on the tool box. I don't have a slide awning topper. I think it's coming in from the...

On My OTB TT if motor failed you needed to unlock motor before you were able to hand crank. Do you not have this step with a Sundance?

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...

Today I woke up the beast and noticed that I could see light from under the off door side slideout. I got under the slideout and found that the rubber seal was cut and deformed were the slideout rollers were located. I could not see any reason for the seal to be cut and deformed. Has anyone else...

I was looking underneath the back bedroom slide and noticed the rubber seal attached to the frame was pointing up on both ends but was sagging down toward the middle is this normal? I didn't see that on the other slides.

When I purchased my 2009 Heartland North Country 29RKS, I was told by the dealer that there was a manual override for the superslide. Can you tell me where it is? Is there a special tool for it, or perhaps direct me to a manufacturer of the slide where I might get some info.

Well, we have had our Sundance for about a month. Not spent one night in it or taken on one trip. Been at dealer for almost two weeks where they have worked hard to stop leak in shower around the caulking,fresh water tank not filling and leak in basement.(water leak in basement fixed & water...

Hello, When my slide is in, on the inside of the rig, there is a 1-1 1/2" gap in the leading edge of the slide (higher) than the rest of the flooring in the rig. For example, you have to step up on the slide if you want to sit in the dinette. If you stand on it, it seems to give a little. So...

Today while doing some work on the bed platform I noticed that the Nuts on the end of the cilinder rod were not snug against the mounting bracket. With the slide open the two Jam nuts were tight up against the bracket but the Nylock Nut was 3" away from the bracket ,this ment that when I closed...

Just picked our 3670 in November, took it home, leveled it up and put the slide outs out to start packing for our first trip in the spring and the main slide out had left a black streak on the carpet and had torn off some of the fibers. I have appraised the dealer of the problem and he...

Hello, I can't seem to find the manual crank for the master bed slideout. I looked in the storage compartment. Maybe it's hidden by all the stuff in that front compartment.

Hello All, As some of you already know, I'm the proud new owner of a 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 with all the trimmings... Except... the Hitch! So.. I've started this thread not to ask which hitch to get.. ( I've already decided on the 18k Reese Signature Series ), but to find out if I really...

We have one of the ultra lights, Sundance 265rk XLT, and we would love to be able to find a roll up type of exterior shade for our large slide out. Has anyone done this, and if so, where did you get them? Thanks for your input! :D Rick and Janine

OK all you RV wizard's. Well the BH is now out of warrenty by 2 weeks. I put the slides out a week ago to do some work on the inside. Today I wanted to wash it for our rally next weekend. I pusha the button and she was a no work the door side slide. It would not move, just grunted:confused:. I...

I was putting out the double slide when I heard the motor really start to slow down. Then I smelled something hot. The motor has quit. How can I check the motor and determine if it is the motor or whether it is a wiring problem. What is the warranty on the slide motor as trailer is just over...

I am having a problem returning the slideout. I have a 3612, and the last slide gets about half way in and it stops. If I wait a few minutes, it will start again. It is getting worse and now takes 3 tries to get it all the way in. I am afraid one day it will not go in all the way and I will be...

just wanted to say A big thank you to Jim B Gary Heartland rep and the rest of you involved in assisting me in diagnosing my slide out problem it is A bad switch and Gary at Heartland is shipping me out one tommorrow What A great forum and what A great company they truly do try to have the best...

I just purchased a 3250TS and was told by the dealer that all the slides operate off one switch with the smaller slide going out 1st and then the next smaller, etc. My question is this...Is there a way to operate (override the all slide function) and move one slide or two slides rather than...

Just a quick question, I have a 09 3385 :D... When the slide-outs are nested (closed) some of the trim plates that covers the gaskets on the top and the sides nest flush with the the coach... On the large living room slide, one side nest flush while the other side is bumped out about an inch...

The big slide on door side closes tight at the top but looks like it is out a little at the bottom. The other slides look tight top and bottom. Fellow worker has Bighorn with same problem. Does the slide need adjustment or is this the nature of big slides? Thanks, Don

Well, we were pulling in slides getting ready to leave our summer job and heard a rather loud metallic sound when the entertainment slide started moving. We finally got the slide in but noticed that the forward edge (outside) wasn't pulled in tight against the rig. Also started poking around...

Ok, since my dealer is 125 miles away one way I would really like to solve this problem myself. Bought a new 08 Sundance 3300sk in April of this year and first trip in the rain the carpet was wet on the left side (tv,stove,refrigerator side). Upon checking under the unit there is a seal (one)...

Question to all or Heartland Rep? Just drove about 300miles yesterday to look at the Sundance XLT 287 RL. I have to say I was pretty impressed by this unit. The only problem with this unit is that the bedroom is pretty cramped and I know this is because of the weight factor. What my question is...

I Have A 09 Sundance 2900mk With A Leaking Livingroom Slide . Dealer Ajusted Twice And Still It Leaks Both Trim Pieces At Each End Replaced, Is This Common For Hearthland Products?

My husband was recently driving down the road with our Bighorn 3640RL when he noticed in his side mirror that the top of the living room entertainment slide was angled outward. :eek: When he stopped, the slide was back in place however one of the ceiling fan blades was broken. We haven't...

I have an 08 3670RL and it is out of warranty. I live 240 miles from my dealer. The bottom rubber seal on the bedroom slide is coming apart. The flap part of the seal is what is tearing off on both ends. Can the factory ship this part direct to an owner? Or does someone have a different fix for...
