HWH levelers not retracting

I have a 2004 Itasca with HWH 305 levering system. last time out warning light and buzzer went off. Had system in travel mode in store. This did not resolve problem, I thought it was the usual fluid heating up. Now after sitting levelers will not retract. So far I found the system low on fluid. What else should I be checking before I manually retract them?
  • The FLUID is always low when the jacks are down! Check the fluid only when the jacks are retracted!
    Siggy
  • Thanks for the input, I will check the connections for power and ground and go from there.
  • Your jacks need power to retract. As the other poster stated, odds are you have a fuse blown. BUT, 14 years old may be corroded or bad power connections. Does your Touch Pad light up? LOW fluid will not affect retraction. Just open the T handles on the 4 solenoids and see if they retract. IF they do NOT retract, your SHUTTLE valve is stuck. Doug
  • We once blew a fuse(125a) to the levelers and could not retract. No indications what was wrong. Fuse was well hidden and didn't look like a normal fuse, looked like a bar. We jumpered around the fuse and got the levelers up. Went to NAPA and bought a new fuse.
