Re: Lipped Level Up leg extending while towing
Level up is hydraulic, so I would suspect a solenoid is either sticking or has failed.

Re: Lipped Level Up leg extending while towing
It works as should up and down. When traveling today I noticed that it would extend about 3 inches. I would manually retract and on next stop it would be down about 3 inches

Re: Lipped Level Up leg extending while towing
When your operating the pump, the jacks will move. When you stop operating the jack it should stay at whatever position it was stopped at. Does it stay down when at the campground?

Re: Lipped Level Up leg extending while towing
Each jack will have two lines. One is for extend and the other is for retract. When you push the button on the control panel, the pump operates and a solenoid valve operates, directing the flow of fluid. When you let off the button, the solenoid valve closes and prevents the flow of fluid. It sounds like a solenoid valve isn't closing and shutting off fluid flow.

Re: Lipped Level Up leg extending while towing
I've seen slide rooms creep out, this is the first jack I've heard of, but in each case it's been a solenoid.

I am having the same trouble with the passenger front jack. None of the others are sliding down. Front passenger slides down about three inches also.
