troubleshooting
When issues arise during auto sequencing, often the cause is from a component being plugged in wrong—
level sensors mounted wrong, jack plugged in wrong at the controller and jack leg. However, these
conditions may still auto level correctly when performed on a flat surface.
To ensure a good auto level sequence, do as follows:
1.
Reset Zero Point.
2.
Operate system in Manual Mode and observe the following:
A.
Extend and retract front jacks—both jacks move.
B.
Extend and retract rear jacks—both jacks move.
C.
Extend and retract left (roadside) jacks—both jacks move.
D.
Extend and retract right (curbside) jacks—both jacks move.
3.
If any jack does not move, then it may be plugged into the wrong position. Correctly plug the
inoperative jack into its designated position.
Note:
A jack can be plugged into the controller correctly, but that does
Not
mean the jack is plugged into
the correct harness.
4.
Visually inspect the controller and the rear sensor for secure, proper mounting and orientation.
5.
Observe the touchpad's message, "Auto level success" or "Auto level fail."
A.
A "fail" message simply means auto level was not achieved in the alloted time. Check the following
possible causes for the "fail" message:
I.
Low battery voltage
II.
Excessive slope
III.
Leg moving slower than normal
B.
A "success" message suggests that the jacks touched the ground. Do as follows:
I.
Again, visually inspect the rear level sensor for secure, proper mounting and orientation.
II.
If rear sensor is securely and properly mounted in the correct orientation, then replace the sensor.
6.
After correcting any of the conditions described in step 5, reset Zero Point. See Zero Point
Calibration section.
Maintenance
1.
For optimum performance, the system requires full battery current and voltage. The battery must be
maintained at full capacity.
2.
Check the terminals and other connections at the battery, the controller and the jacks for corrosion
and loose or damaged connections. Clean, repair or replace terminals or battery as necessary.
3.
Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed.
4.
If jacks are down (extended) for long periods of time, it is recommended to spray exposed leveling jack
rods with a silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If the 5th Wheel is located in a salty
environment, it is recommended to spray the rods every four to six weeks.
