Hideout 308BHDS Rear Jacks

[KevinGwin]

The stabilizer jacks just stopped working or making any sound at all. They crank up and down very freely. I’m quite certain is something as simple as a 20 amp inline fuse like most diagrams I’ve found say, but for the life of me, I can NOT find that fuse. Where is it!?!?

The motors in stabilizer jacks are notoriously unreliable. That said, your problem since BOTH are not working probably isn't the motors in two jacks going out at the same time. So, on the bulkhead where your tongue A-frame attaches to the trailer you'll find a couple of 0.5x1" boxes (metal or plastic) with wires from the trailer battery attached. Those are circuit breakers. Chances are one of them has failed.

It is one motor that runs the one set of rear stabilizer jacks....I don’t have an a frame that meets my trailer, it’s a 5th wheel

Then you have those two circuit breakers adjacent to where your battery cables interface with your fifth wheel electrical system.

There are no circuit breakers near the battery. The front landing gear has a fuse and that’s literally all that I see

Every Keystone trailer that I've seen (travel trailer or fifth wheel) has at least two. Go to the + battery cable, follow it and it'll lead you directly to the 12VDC circuit breakers.

Here's a link to a video that explains their function better than I can with a keyboard.

Ok, I do have those behind the battery, but I’d think other stuff in addition to ONLY the rear stabilizer would be not working

I am getting 12VDC when I hit the switch and check at the red wire going into the relay. How do I test to see if the relay is bad. It’s that 6amp auto reset relay... which id obviously rather change than the motor
