Happijac wont go up

Question

Hoping someone else has ran into this.  I’ve been having an issue where sometimes the bed wont retract up.  I hit the switch and nothing.  If I fiddle around with the switch for a bit and lower it a few times then quickly go back up I have always been able to get it to  work.  Now I’m camped with the bed all the way down and have been fiddling with the switch for a while and nothing.  I pulled the switch from the panel and its unlike any switch I have ever seen before.  Looks like a single phone jack plug with no 12v going through it.  Of course all the paperwork on it is sitting at home.  Any ideas?

Looks like I found the problem.  Located the circuit board that was velcroed to the top of the motor.  Jiggled the upper limit switch did the trick.

Sounds like an interesting use of Velcro.

It serves its purpose.  Its a small white box with a couple of plugs going into it and was easy to locate and triubleshoot from that location.  Was reading some other threads on this topic and people were having a hard time locating the box on their trailers

I guess if it works that's what matters most. Glad you got it fixed!
