Leveling jacks system resevoir - Keith Strehle - 02-28-2007 10:42

Would anyone be able to tell me where the fill point is for the
leveling jacks on the 84FCSB?

Thanks, Keith

On My 87FC, it is under the entry step. Take a look, you'll see how to
get to it under the carpet.

Okay, that's what the metal plate is for. I'm thinking that's why
I'm getting the dash alarm on the jacks? Low fluid maybe? Do you
have those alarms on your bus?

Make sure the springs are pulling the jack all the way up into it's
stored position. If not , then you may get an alarm.

They're going all the way up. The problem is getting them down.
That's whay I think it may be a fluid level problem. Seems like the
first one goes down fine. Then the alarms start? If I get time I'll
check the level tonight. Is the fluid Dextron?

Keith, The dash alarm goes off on Pokey regularly. I have to get out and help
the jacks to the rest position or the alarm won't go off.

That kinda makes sense. Mine aren't going down. So they must be
getting into the alarm area but not going past it? Hopefully when I
add fluid they will go down all the way.

The alarm is telling you that the jacks are down(or part way down) and
the ignition switch is on so you don't drive off with the jacks down.

That makes sense. Can you tell me where the fluid level should be in
the tank? There doesen't seem to be a dipstick or any way to tell
other than to top it off. (In the up position)
