Ok so here is the answer if anyone is interested.
Called Lippert and said there is no power at all to the power pad.
He said there is a 10 amp inline fuse near the pump and if it is blown, there will be no power to the power pad. The pump is on the opposite side of the power pad. He said with a low battery you will still get power to the pad, but the jacks will not work..
I did try to find an inline fuse to start with and even after he told me there was one, I had a hard time finding it. But it is there behind and under the pump with what seems like miles of wiring and hydraulic lines in an area you can't see in or get your head in to see. Pulled the fuse & it was blown. It works fine now. The only thing I did was change the battery a couple months ago, so maybe the surge of a new battery blew the fuse, don't know.
If anyone is interested on how to manually operate the system, google "how do you manually raise a Lippert jack" and watch the u-tube video "Stranded on Mt.Washington" it explains it very well and does work as I did it....
