Lippert/Schwintek Tilt Bed
We have a 2014 Coachmen Brookstone 355RL that we bought new on January 2. To say that everything has been fine with the unit would be a misstatement, but there has been nothing that I couldn't fix myself. That is, until last night when I couldn't get the bed to fold flat. This morning I took the plywood off of the bed frame so that I could access the Lippert Hall Effect Bed Tilt Control 15001-C (part #260793) and found green and red LED's blinking in every imaginable combination. I called Lippert tech support, and after over an hour of waiting on hold, I was told that there was nothing they could do to help me. That the controller had apparently lost power (which happens every time you turn off the battery switch), and the upper and lower limits needed to be reset. But, if you can't move the mechanism, you are unable to set the limits. So, bottom line, I need to visit a service center. That there is no way to bypass the thing is crazy. Fortunately, the bed is in the tilted position, or I would not be able to bring in the bedroom slide. Anyway, has anyone experienced this problem? I appreciate anything anyone can offer.
