Hydraulic leveler Drive 90 SP36 - williamcharrison - 04-02-2006 01:47 Help, My bird has been stored all winter with the jacks down and now the leveler motor runs all the time (unless I shut off the level minder). There is plenty of fluid in the reservoir and the jacks still extend and retract, however the green indicators now only work for the right side jacks. With the engine running when I turn on the level minder the alt charge indicator goes up to about 75 amps from it's normal 5-10. I did notice that the left rear jack takes a long time to retract the last several inches.

I'd check it for function. Motor should only run when levers are moved to the extend position. There is a little wire fence that contacts the levers to close the switch for extending jacks. Slow retraction is sticky jack, lever not moving enough to uncover vent port or debris in oil causing blockage.

If any one of the four jack levers are put in the extend position the hydraulic motor should come on and extend that jack. I am not familiar with the colors of the 8 LEDS on your coach but mine are red for a jack extended and blue for a jack to low and needs to be extended more. If all of the jacks are down then all of the red LEDs will be on. At the same time the low corner of the coach will cause the blue LED to come on. I believe your SP36 generator uses the same hydraulic motor to power the slide. I know my 1985 PT40 generator works off the same hydraulic motor. tom warner Vernon Center,NY PM 4/2/2006, you wrote: >Thanks Mike, > I just returned from the bird having cycled the jacks several >times, now only the right front green indicator light stays on >when the bags are filled and the jacks are all up and the levers >are in "neutral".
