Power Gear jacks acting up

[Iceclimber]

I have the tripod setup, everything was working fine until now, went to deploy and noticed the sound was weird. Now only one jack, left rear will move (sounds totally normal) but the other two sound like they are running dry for lack of a better term - and will not move. So electrical fine, fluid fine as I just checked it.

Ideas ? Thanks.

Maybe reset system, on my 4 set up with system off hold power button down till you hear a beep or a few seconds can’t hurt.

Thanks for the suggestion I didn't know that trick. However after checking fluid, fuse by pump and reading the manual - I pulled and checked every fuse in the power gear controller by the steering wheel and viola the jacks are back. Mysterious, but I'll take the easy win. Also, time to repay Large Marge with a jack pump fluid change, I am sure the previous owner never did one.
