LCI Auto Level troubles- 6 pt electric

[Giggitygoo]

I curious if anyone else is having trouble with their auto level system. Mine is on a 2013 Voltage 3905. I brought mine to dealer after the first use becuase the right rear jack never came down or the middle two jacks either. They said it was fixed, I took it back out again and the front and rear jacks lifted the front and rear axle off the ground and the middle jacks never came down (it was never level- it read out of stroke). I was on level ground and had 5" word of pads under rear jacks. I wonder if the gyros on not sequenced or operating properly.
Thanks for any insight.

I just got off the phone with LCI and they told me that I need a group 27 battery to fix the problem since the motor is pulling too many amps (spikes). They said that 90% of problems like this are from lack of available amps. I currently have 2 Interstate deep cycles in parrallel.
What kind of battery do you run (those who have a functioning system)?

Think of the auto level as more of an auto stabilizing system. You need to get the trailer pretty level before using the system. If there are any low spots build them up with pads or wood under the jacks and if necessary under the tires.

Think of the "out of stroke" message from the system as one of the jacks (or more) can't extend far enough to do its job of getting that portion of the trailer level. Just like if you had traditional hand crank jacks and one of them extends down all the way yet doesn't touch the ground.

When the system goes into the out of stroke mode, it stops all jacks, so if your middle jacks are not coming down, it tells me that on one of the four corners the jack has extended as far as it can go and halted the system.

Using a traditional level on the floor or counter you can tell which way the trailer needs to do, retract all the legs (except the front two) build up under the jack that has extended to its full stroke, then try again.

We mainly dry camp or boondock, so I never have a very level surface, I carry blocks to put under jacks. Once you get the hang of how the system works, you will LOVE it.

I hope this helps?

I had the same problem, I had to manually calibrate it, you dealer should be able to give you the instructions.

However every now and again the center jacks will not come down all the way and I have to do another autolevel.
