Don't shut the engine down until air dumped and jacks are down. Never had an issue.
Slides go out when power is hooked up and check done.

Atlantic components they are in mass. I like the 45a better but they have a 25 dollar mim so you can order both for 25 and try the one you like. the 45a did work for me. now I can sleep at night after traveling when engine cools down, no more buffer fan wine.

Is the engine running?
Is it continuous?
Have you tried high idle and if so is it still an issue then?

Looks like you have the wrong kit. RV 2000 was what I was shown/told to get.

You probably know this but there is a time delay of about one minute after the engine is started until the alternator voltage is applied to the chassis batteries. If you do not have your batteries connected to shore power while parked the chassis battery could be low and after starting, the voltage might be low enough that the leveler controller senses low voltage. Another thing that comes to my mind is what to do if the low voltage condition cannot be corrected. Is there a manual over ride? We could be stuck with levelers down.

Thanks for the company name. It may do the trick.
