I read through the operational directions several times and was satisfied I was operating correctly. To put proper perspective on the problem I'll get more specific. When I set-up the coach for inside activity I level on automatic, extend which ever slides I want out, then turn off the engine. The problem, when it occurs, starts when I start the engine to bring the slide(s) in, running the engine is required in Power-Gears instructions.
The first time I noticed something amiss was after the slides were in, I exited the coach and found the jacks were up. The second time it happened I had only one slide out and when it was in I turned the engine off. When I restarted the engine the jack control alarmed and indicated they were down. Investigating found all were down halfway, no matter what I did I could not raise or lower them.
Yesterday, going through some links that member CLIFFTALL (thank you
) had sent me, it appeared the unit needed to be reset. Five minutes at the coach this AM, problem solved
.
Resolution: The operating instructions did not state to turn the
system off after leveling. Tracing back in my mind I'm sure I was sometimes simply turning the truck ignition off after extending. This apparently confuses the leveler's logic when the key is turned back to run. I tried the system twice (turning off before the engine) and it worked fine. Hope this long winded tale of woe helps someone else if they encounter the problem.
If the system needs reset both the manual and auto lights will be flashing in unison, hold the on/off switch down for 3 seconds minimum.
