HWH reservoir falling off

[contrail Bob]

Last week we decided to take the coach for a two day camping trip. When we
arrived at our site, the Right rear jack would not extend. Also when we were
ready to leave the right front jack would not retract fully it would hang just
low enough to keep the alarm on. A couple days after arriving back home I
decided to check it out. The first thing I checked was the fluid level in the
jack reservoir. When I took the step cover off and looked down at where the fill
should be it was not in sight. Upon further examination I found that the
reservoir was tilted at about a 45degree angle. Upon crawling under the coach
to check it out I found that one of the two bolts holding the tank to the frame
had come out. This allowed the tank to tilt downward as it traveled downward it
also took out the wiring to the right rear solonid. I was able to prop the tank
back up and found a bolt that would work, I then replaced the broken wires and
added about two quarts of mercron-dextron. The right rear jack then worked
normal and the front right jack would retract to about two inches below normal
position. After letting the coach set for a couple days the front right jack
started working correctly.
Can't imagine why the tank bolt came out, I think It might be a good idea
when one does the lube job on the front end to check the 2 bolts that hold that
tank in place.
It's cool here in Illinois, we're starting to think about our winter visit
to SPI, will probably leave here mid december.
