Brookstone 5th front Jacks

Have a 2011 370MB 5r and have lost power to the front and rear leveling jacks. Have checked everything and can't seem to find the fuse or why I lost power. If I remove the switch wires and run directly to the battery I can put the jacks up and down
anything will help

wiring for front jacks 2011 brookstone

My Tech is having problems with the wiring going to the control remote brain to the front jacks to jack motor. The brain was fried so we got a new one from Lippert. Lippert doesn't have any wiring diagram. Forest River doesn't have wiring diagram, Coachman Doesn't have wiring diagram DAH how do they make these?
I need to know where the wires go from switch (orange wire, red wire, black wire, white wire) Motor is reversable I know black and white.
Can anyone help or have a number I can call. My tech and I have all the places above with no luck.
If someone can look in there 5r and tell me what wires are connected it would help.
We think what fried the brain was the lift motor

I have posted in Forest River also

I am confused. Wouldn't you just take out one and put in the other? Did you take one out and forget where they go on the new one?

Is it the item you have a picture of above?

That is what the tech did - took the wires apart off the switch and motor and now doesn't know where the one white wire on the sts hooks up to going to the switch/motor. If it would have been me I wouldn't have taken anything apart. He says he has it all together except that wire. White should be ground but he says there is voltage coming thru it.
I don't know what to do.
