6-Point Leveling System

I wondered if that was messing it up.

I haven't been able to get mine to work either. I read somewhere it only works if the front of the 5er is lower than the truck height at level. So it means it will only raise it to truck level, not lower it to truck level. I gave up on it. Every time I try it it says something like, feature not enabled or something along those lines.

thank you for all of this info! I feel more secure choosing one with this system now!

Yes mine has issues getting the truck height to work. I think it's only done it once since I got the unit. Don't know how or what I did different that day. But I do try it every time.

Huge fan of the 6 point auto level. Can't imagine the frustration of having my gal and I try to do it manually.

Auto level is sweet. Happy wife....happy life and a level camper keeps her happy. We have had a many discussions when setting up our old travel trailer that led to a quick 6 pack of beer gone on my behalf LOL.

A couple of observations from new 5th wheel owner... I found mine wasn't calibrated to level as it had the appearance of leaning a tick so I zeroed it. Also, I've started to use manual mode if the ground clearly is uneven. My system would sometimes pick up the side requiring the least amount of stroke first. Then when it tried to pick up the other side it would run out of stroke on the jacks. If I level from the side it's listing to then put enough weight on the other jacks to firm it up, I'm fine.

Two things I discovered...One, dealers are not aware of exactly how this system works for the most part and doing research, you can find much of the info on how to troubleshoot this system..my personal example is my Alpine would not auto level at all and every attempt the dealer did made it worse

1) Dealers are not aware how to properly zero calibrate the system once obtaining complete level manually

2) Dealers are not aware of how to reset the rear sensor. Heck my dealer and two other dealers I asked after the fact, thought the rear sensor was in the control board up front when in fact it is behind the rear axle on the frame and of course not visible

3) you cannot simply swap a control board from another unit as it was calibrated based on the weights and slides of the other unit which is why when this was attempted with mine, it nearly turned into a transformer and turned over. There are steps in place to do this..

My own research and with assistance from Lippert, resolved all of this.

It is an awesome feature to have but highly recommend having that manual and simply understand how it all works.
