We had our camper stored all winter. We went to pick it up last night. We brought a generator with and plugged it in. Our hydraulic jack's wouldn't work at all, so we put jumper cables on the battery and jumped it but only one side of the jacks went down and one of our slide outs started to come out (the slide outs are not on the same switch as the jacks). Took the battery home and charged it and put it back in and still nothing is happening. Last night the back jacks went down fine. Could it be a bad switch? What are some of the suggestions to find out the problem.
The site team has moved this question into it's own thread. Dustman, I think you were posting at the same time, which is why it got caught up in the move..

A 72 hour hold in a psych unit is beginning to intrigue me as a potential vacation opportunity.

Are you sure your battery is good? If it was stored all winter and was dead, it may be shot. The hydraulics take a lot of battery power.
