Electric Jack Quit

Have a 2016 x lite bunkhouse, just got the camper out of storage and used the electric jack several times last week. Pulled it out to the campground weds and the jack is no longer working. Battery is good and when hooked up to 30 amp I got no power. Stabilizer jacks work, just not the front jack. Checked the fuses below the rear beds and everything is good. Help please, tired of cranking it by hand.

Usually the jack connects directly to the battery and has an inline fuse. See if there is any voltage on the + lead to the jack. If there is and the jack can be manually operated (meaning not jammed) go to Amazon and order a new one. If you're using a weight distribution hitch get a jack with a minimum of 4,000 pounds capacity.

Should be an in-line blade type (automotive style) fuse. 30A usually. Just follow the power back. It is along the frame.

My powered jack has a fuse under the housing. You have to take it apart.
