Leveling jacks

1998 Bounder should have a 12 volt motor electric slide. Does the slide out work with the Emergency brake OFF? NO way the Slide system and the Leveling jack wiring or controls would be interconnected or accessed. UNLESS, it is as simple as the Emergency Brake Pin switch wire or Pin switch is off or defective. IF you have a Ford Chassis, it is very common for the Emergency Brake switch to malfunction. Does the Emergency Brake Lite come ON(Dash Cluster) when you engage the Brake pedal? If NOT, then the Emergency Brake switch is what to look at FIRST. It is easy to see where the Pedal linkage pivots under the dash. WHAT did you have done to the slide? You have a 23 year old motorhome and things happen. It is probably a coincidence that the jacks failed. How long was it between the Slide repair and when you first operated the Jacks? IF the touch pad does NOT come on then NOTHING you do (emergency brake and so on) will allow the jacks to operate. The Touch pad will come on regardless of Brakes or anything else. It may be as simple as the Touch Pad wire quick connect is loose or came off the touchpad. OR the fuse for the touch pad is blown. Doug

PS, some model Jack touch pads will not come On FULLY if the Jack system does not see the Emergency Brake light signal
