I have a beeping sounds that I would assume would be from the jack leveling system. All jacks work properly. Any ideas ?

Do you mean HWH jacks?

If so, correct stow procedure is to start the engine, hit "stow" AND MOST IMPORTANT-- DO NOTHING ELSE.

It will continue to bleed fluid back to the reservoir for a couple of minutes. If turned off by you, it can trap fluid in the lines.

And, check the fluid level (dip stick on the reservoir) with jacks stowed (but that is not the source of your alarm).

Once parking break is released, within seconds it starts beeping.

That may not work... are you certain?

I remember trying this when my own system was being stubborn and it turned out to be opposite of what I expected.

Well, it might work, I simply don't remember.

if it was a low fluid why would it only beep when put in gear?


When you're not moving, the MH has no problems with the jacks being down or at least registering as being down because you could be parked in an RV park. However, the MH does have a problem with you moving with them down or at least thinking they're down.

When the levelers are retracted, they force the fluid back into the pump holding tank where the sensor reads the fluid level. If the level isn't high enough, the sensor believes at least one of the levelers is still down.

Assuming the levelers are up all of the way, either the fluid is low or the sensor is bad. Again, when this happened to me, my fluid level looked fine to me, but a put a touch in and the beeping went away. It's been happy for two years now.

maybe your system works this way HWH do not. when my jacks are down and I turn the key on it beeps and the lite on dash lites up until jacks are totally retracted
there is a up position senor at each jack if there out of sync or jacks down even a c-hair it will beep
