Quadra Big Foot Leveling - Auto Level

Are there any others out there besides Carriage and Lifestyle owners with the Quadra Big Foot Auto leveling system on their rigs.
I had it on my Cameo and on my current Lifestyle.
I never had any issue with the Cameo auto level. However, on the Lifestyle the auto level sends the rig into a nose dive. You end up leveling manually.
This is a hot topic of discussion on the Carriage/Lifestyle owners forum and Quadra is aware and thus far have no solution nor are they saying that its an installation issue.
Does anyone else have this issue with the Big Foot system on their rig? If so, have you found a fix? Thanks, Phillip

  • So far so good on our Carri-Lite. If it starts acting up, I'll just run the controls and level it myself. I have level bubbles on the front corner for side to side and fore and aft. Still a pretty easy level even if you have to do the thinking and push the control buttons;) Take care.
  • If you have a generation II Big Foot, expect problems. 1.5 years we have been through 1 jack and 3 control boards. It will loose level and nose dive. Call Big Foot and discuss the problems. I have added a toggle switch to totally power off the sensor when traveling and it seems to be working.

  • I have factory installed BF on my Hitchhiker. The only time that has happened to me is when the site is WAY low in the rear.

    You are aware that you have to start nose high, correct?
