Power gear jacks will not work

Recommended Posts

I have a 2003 Fleetwood Providence with power gear manual hydraulic leveling system.  After a recent trip the power would come on but jacks would not extend (coach running, air system bled down, full fluid level, power panel 10A fuse good, 10A fuse on pump harness good).  I took it to RV repair, they said it worked fine,  I tried before I left and front jacks went down, but would not retract.  New control panel, same issue, no change.  What am I missing.  Currently when I turn on power to panel it shows jacks down, but all are retracted.  If I turn off parking brake, and put in gear it sounds alarm and flashes.  
 

I appreciate any help.

maybe stupid question,but how are your house batteries, charged and turned on?  also, have you checked wiring harnesses in the system for loose or frayed wires, or bad ground?

Batteries are good.  Need ac power from ground power or generator to run the pump.  I have checked the harness visually, but don’t have the skill to do a continuity check.

Pat, I'm having the same issue on an 04 Fleetwood Bounder.  I've checked everything that you mentioned but I can't find any 10 Amp fuse from the chassis battery to the pump.  Where was yours located?  My symptoms include when pressing the "Automatic" button on the jack pad it pulls power from everything on the das DC (fan, mirror heater, camera, etc.

 

TIA, John

He said his leveling system is manual only, meaning your automatic system is not the same model. What is the make/model of your leveling system?
