Atwood Levelegs question

When I press Auto all the legs extend nicely and usually the RV is well leveled afterwards. In the last 2-3 days we parked, the front right leg extended, but never touched the ground. I tried to extend it by pressing the buttons, but I can't figure out how to use the controls. I read the manual (if you can call it such), and could figure out how to use the controls.

I have this controller:



Can somebody please give me instruction what buttons I need to press to extend the levelers?

thanks,

Paul, I think I have the same system. After I "Auto" level, I can operate individual jacks only in pairs--either front, rear, driver side or passenger side. I called Atwood Tech Support and it is not possible to operate individual jacks.

Sounds like you need to reset the AUTO position. You can find the procedure in the manual (it is available online http://www.atwoodmobile.com/manuals/...2011.21.07.pdf)

I have same system. Sound like controller has lost position of that jack. Call Atwood and they can tell the procedure to reset the position. Call during business hours and ask Coachnet to transfer you to Atwood.

If you have the older style system, and by the looks of your panel you do, you need to realize one primary point.

The "Auto" function and the "Manual" function of this system can not be combined. If you started your leveling process in Auto you will need to store it in auto. You cannot use the manual portion of the system to tweek it at any time. You will need to store the jacks and start over using the manual process only.

Call Sue Noyes at Atwood and she will walk you through resetting your auto-level position. She is very well trained on this equipment.

As Retired Bob stated, you can only "tweak" the system manually in pairs, not individual jacks after auto cycling. You definitely need to reprogram the auto cycle per the manual listed above.

Wow, that you for you answer. Pretty braindead design, but hey, at least I know I'm not missing something.

I will try to follow the instructions in the manual to reset the auto state.

thanks.
