DP air bag inflation question?

If you use the dump switch to dump your air......and don't use the jacks, such as when you store it, and don't put the jacks down. When you start the engine, do your airbags inflate ?? or do you have to hit the retract all button on the jacks, even though the jacks aren't down?
  • Thanks Wild Bill.........I just looked at my profile, I have a 2004 Fleetwood Revolution 38B listed on it.

    Well if you had filled out your profile and had your coach info in your signature I could have given a better answer.
    If I leave the dump valve open it will not fill the bags. If the dump valve is closed the bags will fill. Bags are separate from jacks.

  • Ours inflate and go to travel mode as soon as I start the engine.
  • Mine inflate after flicking the dump switch back once air tanks fill after starting the engine. Jacks position makes no difference up or down. Freightliner XC chassis.
  • Supercub, My airbags inflate without hitting the all retract button.
