My Atwood electric jacks still work fine but I do have a brake on one front jack that does not hold like it use to, can I still get the brake kit ?, would not want to replace the whole system for a simple repair..
I've had them apart a bunch, they're a screw jack, no real brake in them. They screw up and down. I'm trying to think how one could not hold once it's screwed into place. I know when the pin holding the gear breaks they'll drop and won't retract.
With that said, ours are the original version. I know the second version counted rotations too plus pulling the amp draw (?) so maybe it's different somehow???
It's still a screw jack so I can't imagine how.
Maybe Doug can shed some light on this?
