Equalizer problem

We drove all day yesterday and pulled into the park at 2:00 am. I stopped,deployed slides and auto leveled. When I awoke this morning I decided to reposition the rig in the site as I had landed crookedly in here last night . So I started the engine,aired up ,and pushed power on button on the equalizer then all retract. Last were slides in. After repositioning,I shut the engine down ,deployed the slides,and pushed auto level on the equalizer.....and ....nothing happened!
The power light does blink every 6 seconds but won't stay on when pushed and no other lights will activate.
With the engine running I get lights to indicate "ignition on" and "engage parking brake"

I've set and unset and reset the parking brake and also killed chassis power to the equalizer controller but no luck at all...

Any suggestions/,experiences will be greatly appreciated!

Are you sure the trans in in Neutral? It is acting like the coach is in gear so the power won't come on to the leveling system.

Yes,the coach is/was in neutral. I actually drove it out of the park on a short loop to allow (Hopefully) it to sort itself out...it didn't! The Equalizer Leveler may think I'm not in neutral but ....

One thing that worked for me in the past was to remove the dash switch panel and unplug it. That did reset the Equalizer computer.

There is an in-line fuse on the pump motor itself in the bay to check.

And if you get the urge to dig deeper there are also fuses in the leveling controller that could be checked. Bolted to the roof of a bay….unplug two connectors, unscrew the controller from the ceiling and then just six screws to pull the cover off the controller. In my 2012 these were just standard auto mini fuses.

Turn on power and push retract button again. If it starts and retracts, you should be good to auto level

Thanks

Ok , I've tried all the suggested fixes....still no luck.

I'm not finding any blown fuses no indication of any burns on the boards.
Does anyone know how/where the equalizer ties into the parking brake and gear selector?

Eequalizer

I’ve had this issue before. Try turning your 12v master switch off for a few seconds and turn back on. Seems to reboot DC power. Good luck.

As a follow up for this problem.

I drove about 6 hours yesterday to a new spot. When I arrived I ran thru the setup procedure and ......the Equalizer Auto Level worked! I think the problem is somehow connected to the parking brake switch because I have noticed on occasion the parking brake isn't fully set when pulled.
Any advice on changing the pneumatic switch itself?
