    Hydraulic Jack Question

    I bought my unit used and it seems to have an issue developing with my jacks. When raising the jacks to connect the truck, the solenoid that operates the pump in that direction is possibly overheating and opens an overload device (self resets). The entire system seems to be self contained and...

    Leaky Hydraulic Hose

    I was under my 2008 GT 350ts, and I noticed the Hydraulic hose that extends the slide was leaking, not gushing but a drip. I discovered it was rubbing where it went through the frame. I retracted the slide very, very little and it took the pressure off the hose. My question is that since it...

    When I picked up my 36CKTS in January, during the PDI the hydraulic breaker would trip when operating the slides and leveling system. The tech said they put in the wrong breaker, and put in a higher amp with an auto reset. That has worked for the last year, with over 80 setting up camp and...

    hydraulic slide issue

    Hi, I have a 2015 3800 and the 3 hydraulic slides won't go out,but will come in. Inside the pump area there are two little relays. If I switch the wires (purple & Pink) I can get the slides to go out. So the issue is somewhere in a relay. Anyone have any thoughts?

    Hydraulic Reservoir?

    I am a new 5th wheel owner. I have attached a photo of a reservoir that I think is for the hydraulic fluid. The markings on the container do not say so, only the manufacture info. Can anyone confirm this? Can I get the hydraulic fluid from my local camper dealer store? Thanks.

    What Fill Level in Hydraulic Bay ?

    I opened two of my slides today, and while open, I checked the level of fluid in the pump tank in prep for our departure to Goshen. With the two slides out, it is about 2/3 full. Is this about what would be expected ? Thanks, Ken
