hydraulic system

Just got my 2014 Montana home to prep for the season. When retracting the rear leveling jacks they would stop by them selves. Letting off of the button and pushing again and they would continue to retract. Same thing with the large living room slide when bringing it in. It will come in about half way and stop. If I release the switch for about 15 seconds and push it again it will come in all the way. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Pete

Very common problem normally solved by upgrading your breakers to 80A. You will see the breakers mounted on the firewall, with wiring going to the pump.

Those are called 'auto' breakers since they reset automatically. New 80 amp ones are well under $10. If you can't find them locally, try Amazon.

Do you have the In-Comm computer system? Not sure when they started installing those, but I was having same problem and it turned out to be the Motherboard in the computer... just saying...
