The touchpad on my Atwood Levelegs quit working. I had an electronics shop check it, but they were unable to get it working. Since the part was obsolete, I looked around for a used pad, but was never able to get one for a price I was willing to pay (most were $500+ used, with little to no warranty).
By chance, I'm sitting in a friend's 2008 Tiffin Phaeton, and he had the same electric Atwood Leveleg system, and his touchpad was also broken. He called down to Red Bay and talked to a service rep, and sure enough, Tiffin had those obsolete can't find anywhere touchpads in stock. $119 shipped. He ordered one and when it came in and worked, he ordered another and I paid him for it. Finally, after 2+ years my jacks worked...for about 10 months.
Recently, my jacks go down and when all make contact, the driver's front alarms and locks up the system. I had to unplug the jack motor, spin the manual retract nut, re-connect power to the jack, and hit retract all, and hope they all do. Pretty much back to using the orange level blocks till I have the time and $$$ to have someone look at it.
Maybe Tiffin has new jacks in stock??
The NEW style Atwood jacks will work for the old system. You just don't connect the 2 wire sensor plug on the new jack when replacing. Doug
