Hydronic leveling system

What's the old saying, if you don't think you have any problems with your RV you just don't know it yet? Boy do we know it. Now our leveling system keeps clicking in the back. Did it about 5-6 times during the night. Don't know if it's symptomatic but yesterday the air didn't build back up for awhile (5min) the bingo, it did. Any suggestions?

  • Profile says it's an Endeavor but that's it....at least he didn't say it was Hydroponic....folks, no one can help if you don't provide information about they system that's giving you fits....more info equals more help....Dennis
  • Just wondering,
    What type/year/make/model of coach and, engine etc.???? That would help certain folks who have the same model and possibly year, help you with accurate answers.

  • Not sure what your referring to but , I have a air auto leveling system (and a hydraulic system also I rarely use). The auto air system wakes up every 30 minutes checks level and readjusts air in the airbag suspension then goes back to sleep. That can cause creaking noises as it moves. Perhaps you have a airbag that's leaking and causing all that readjustment? Maybe turn off the auto level system once level and see if that makes a difference or if you lose level overnight.
  • FYI: The term Hydronic refers to a type of heating system, while hydraulic (oil) refers to most leveling systems and there are also pneumatic (air) based systems as well.
  • If you are leveled using an auto system, it is possible it is just releveling as it is supposed to. The system wakes up periodically and relevels if necessary. What kind of motorhome and leveling system do you have?
  • Not understanding what your asking about. Do you mean hydraulic leveling? Then your talking about air ?


    If it took that long to air up ( air brakes and suspension) then you probably have a issue. Did you perform a leak test on your brakes?

    And if your leveling is pneumatic ( air not hydraulic) then you most likely have a leak based on your comment.
