Slides and leveling jacks

I think there has been some conversation about slides stopping when being used, mine will stop two or three times trying to get them in and my hydraulic jacks will do the same any ideas folks ?

I just finished replacing our two 50 amp worn out auto breakers with these: http://www.waytekwire.com/item/46933...FYEjgQodArUA0g The old ones worked OK for over a year, but started doing the same as yours. Only takes a few minutes, but you'll need a square bit screwdriver and be certain to remove shore power and disconnect your batteries (remove the positive leads!).

Much better breaker than the automotive type. John

Anyone have a picture of where this breaker would be? We just got a 2010 Mountaineer 324RLQ and the slides are doing the start stop routine.

I will be checking the battery (I am going to dual batteries soon) also.

Thanks

We changed out to a quality breaker the first month we had this 13 3402 to prevent having to replace it down the road. Three years and not a problem.r

x2. Do you ever get a low voltage message on the display?

Amdriven2liv, they are right on the lower wall in back of the battery. Follow the positive lead of your battery and you will see the first. Second is coupled to first. John
