I have a HWH 310 system on my 2000 Adventurer. the rear jacks will come off the load but will not retract on their own. I have manually released the Solenoid valve to no avail. If I Push up the jack with a lever it will go up. I only use the mh twice a year and it was last used in March. The front ones go up with no problem.

I had the same problem and just cleaned mine as described in another post.

Spray WD40 on the shafts and on some Qtips. Clean the area where the shaft retracts. There is a lip there where dirt accumulates and you stick the Qtip up there to get out all the gunk. Wipe everything down with a clean paper towel. After cleaning, mine shot right back up.

PS - Welcome to iRV2!

Cleaned mine and it works but I think it is time to replace the springs.

I clean mine with ATF and it makes a world of difference. Especially on the rr one as that seems to accumulate lots of road gunk.
