My tongue jack only works when connected to shore power or when fully hooked up to truck. I thought the battery might be the problem but had it tested - tested good. Any ideas of where to look?
On my older jack, the ground was thru the bolts to the frame.. That was the jack that didn't work that one time for me.
I've since replaced that jack with a new one (the old one finally just broke in the gear box) and the new one has it's own ground wire directly to the battery.
Dunno what else to suggest since you seem to have a different issue than I did with my old jack.
