Jacks wouldn't retract - got them up

[CombatYoga]

Thanks to this forum, when my jacks wouldn't retract on my '15 GT 270S this past weekend, I knew to look in the battery compartment. I saw the red lever thingy had popped out and I pushed it back down.

When I went back into my rig, all of the lights on the left from top to bottom
were blinking in unison. I pushed and held all 4 arrow buttons, then turned the system on and the jacks retracted fine.

I wonder if I needed to hit the 4 arrow buttons?

At any rate, my question is: Now that I went through this reset process, do I need to recalibrate my jacks?

Thanks!

We had the same problem happen to us in our 328tsf. All I needed to do was reset the circuit breaker (red flag indicator) and everything worked perfect.

No need to hold the four arrow buttons. Glad everything worked out for you.

Curious I have a 2015 270s also and didn't know about the reset button. (brought used and was never told and forgot to ask). If the reset didn't work - Question...how do you manually raise jacks if they are stuck down???

Don't quote me on this. I remember reading this in the LCI Owners manual. On our Coach I think you open a valve, use a cordless drill with a screw driver bit to an access paneling on the pump. Depending on which way you run the drill the jacks will retract or extend.

I would suggest find your owners manual or look it up online to verify this procedure.

Good Luck.

This may help if Lippert hydraulic.

Thanks Bubbles...I hope we never have to use it but just in case I'm making copies and putting them all over the unit

[bubbles]

So as not to mislead here is another document for Lippert that has a slightly different manual retract procedure that does not reference the blue knurled knob (pages 34/35.

Thanks a lot for posting this!

Some really good information.

What is the black and white wire for? In the video he says you need to disconnect it but doesn't say what it's for / why.
