LCI system problem

When I park and put emergency brake on and try to turn the system on it take numerous attempt for the “ On “ button to light up. Eventually comes on but seems to in it’s own good time. Once on everything works as it should.
Same problem when ready to raise the jacks. Sometimes I get tired of waiting and release the emergency brake and they auto retract. Don’t like to do it that way but seems like only solution.
Any suggestions?

Unit is a Georgetown 328 , 2014

It kinda sounds like something wrong with the switch. Does the switch 'feel' like it's engaging and disengaging when you operate it?

It's a tactile type switch. Mine sometimes does not illuminate for a few attempts. Sometimes it depends on how fast or slow I press the switch but it always illuminates eventually.

Mine reacts the same way. I have just lived with it. Sometimes I push hard and keep it down for 3 seconds. That does the trick. B

Ours has done that since day one. Had it back to the dealer for that, found nothing wrong with the system. That was 6 years ago, just live with it now. I did find that expletives do not speed up the process but it feels better.

Yup. Me too with the button issues. I think it’s the nature of the beast.

Add another Georgetown with a recalcitrant switch that works in it's own time.

Mine has worked as described since purchase as well.
Figured that was just the nature of the beast and don't notice it so much now.
