Solution to Jacks not retracting

[CharlieW]

Recently, my Power Gear Jacks would not retract. We had to disconnect the three lines and dump the fluid, which let the springs bring them up. We took it to a repair shop and they found the problem: an in-line fuse about 2 feet down the harness from the pump -- the fuse holder had corroded and was not making contact. Everything is up front on my unit, and takes all the rain, salt, etc. My uniit is a 2000 National Sea View, and even though not many of you have one like this, many have Power Gear Jacks, so I hope this might help someone.

Thanks for the tip, Charlie.

Thanks Charlie. I have a good friend that has that same model. I'll pass it on.

I have a 15A fuse in a rubber boot near the pump but that I believe just feeds the control panel for the jacks. The circuit breaker is a 40 A and on the Lippert jacks you just follow the red + battery cable from the connectors at the pump and it is about 18" away from the pump mounted to the frame. Here are 2 pictures of it after I reset it. When it trips it looks like an "L".
