LCI Level controller location
Does anyone know the location of the Lippert LCI Leveling controller in a 2017 FR3? I am trying to troubleshoot what I think may be an electrical issue.

My leveling controller is in the 2nd drivers side compartment where the hydraulic pump is located for the leveling jacks, it is screwed to the plywood ceiling. My coach is a 2015 fr3 30DS. I know because it failed and I had to replace it and the harness.

LCI Controller Circuit breaker
2016 FR3 32DS I just had this problem yesterday rear jacks would not retract I couldn't find breaker anywhere until I got a tech on phone.
it turns out it a semi flat breaker mounted in coach battery area on side of frame you will see large cables going to it then to pump on other side look at breaker if there's a red skinny bar sticking out then it's tripped just push it back in. after that all is well

I'm having the same problem ... I can't find the controller.
Anyone have any luck on other potential locations?

My jacks would not retract yesterday and I had to do them manually, one jack at a time. Trying to use the leveling pad inside the coach got me nothing, not even an error on the pad. Could you expand on how you determined that the leveling controller went bad and why you also had to replace the wiring harness? Thanks.

these LCI leveling systems are powered by two different ways:
- the Control Panel is powered by from the Chassis Battery
- the hydraulics for the Legs are powered by the House batteries
if the the Control Panel works, but the legs do not, you've probably tripped a main BUSS BREAKER, usually located at/near the House batteries. Reset the breaker and you'll have power to the legs again.

Hi, sorry to hear that your jacks are not working properly. The problem started with the jacks only running to full extension, then they tripped the “flag” main power breaker in the battery compartment on my 2014 FR3 30DS. I could only retract them by using the manual bypass hex drive. I called Lippert Customer Service, and they took me through a set of troubleshooting steps (like unhook specific wire connectors on the harness, and perform a set of multi button pushes on the controller panel). Then they asked for the date code on my controller box (top of bay containing the pump system). Apparently there was a range where the controller and harness were faulty and they sent me a replacement controller module and harness. I replaced it, re-zeroed the auto level, and it has worked perfectly ever since. I hope this was helpful. Ken

The LCI controller is that little keypad mounted near the drivers seat. Yes the actual button controls. has the controller mounted to it. I had a jack problem that required unhooking the controller and this is what LCI had me do. It does disable not only the jacks but also the interlocks that prevent the coach from moving. Hope it helps.

LCI location Forest River 378TS
I have a 2011 Forest River 378TS and I need to locate the LCI control panel. I've checked the aft bedroom control panel, battery compartment under steps, under coach hood and I looked in all basement compartments. Does anyone know where this mysterious box and be found? I'm jacks are not working an one is partially down. Not getting power to the controller on the dashboard. I also looked for blown fuses. Call a mobile RV repair guy and he couldn't find it either.

Some of you have Norco BAL Accuslides with cables, some have hydraulic and some have the Lippert/ Power Gear Slim Rack. If you call Forest River Service at 574-206-7600 they can help you. Please have your VIN# handy when you call. Please reach out to me directly if you still have questions...
