Atwood Electric Jacks - Replacement Electronics
Our 2002 Lance 811 has the Atwood electric jacks with wireless remote control. The guy that I got the camper from said the jacks stopped working and he couldn't figure out why. I was able to find out that the Atwood controller modules were very well made and were prone to unrepairable failure.
As you know, Atwood was bought by Rieco-Titan, who was bought by Lippert, and they stopped making the Atwood jacks. Rieco-Titan makes a compatible controller, but it's very $$$.
So I stumbled across this on Amazon made by Gama Electronics. Note the updated design with each jack circuit protected by a 30a fuse. Also totally sealed and 100% waterproof, which is a good thing since it mounts under the sink LOL.

Gama also makes this remote control:
and this activation switch:
I bought all 3 and installed them last weekend. Now every jack works as it should, independently and as a set. I know there are a zillion campers with these jacks installed, so if anybody is looking for reasonably priced electronics, these are worth the $$.
