Kitchen and dining room slide issue 2016 3791RD

Has anyone had an issue with the slide outs not staying stowed? My kitchen and dining slides won’t stay in. I put them in and within 2 hours they start creeping out. My leveling jacks also give way. Hydraulic system maybe? The other 3 slides are mechanical and hav no issues but these two are on the same switch and hydraulic. Thought may be batteries but have it hooked into shore power and have 13.2 volts to system. Any help is greatly appreciated

Sounds like you have a bad check valve since it is effecting both systems. Give Lippert customer service a call. They're usually great and helpful.

Your slide outs ... hyd moved ones have 1 solenoid that controls flow to and from All of the slides that are hyd driven

The six point level up system has 3 solenoids. ..one on the front LG for both because the operate in tandem

The mid and rear leveler legs also have their own solenoid and mid and rear operate in tandem but are depressed from side to side

I suspect ... since both leveling system and hyd slides are creeping that you have air in the system... you can bleed this yourself by cycling slide outs in and out 3 to 5 times and also All leveling legs down and up...

Be sure to pause between each cycle to allow hyd pump motor to cool off

The likely hood of all solenoids having an issue is remote as is the likely hood of all six leveling pistons and slide out hyd actuators leaking internally

You could however... habe a hyd manifold assy on the pump that might cause this issue

Ours was doing the same. Both slides would creep out at the bottom and the front legs would creep all the way down when parked.

In our case it was totally solved by making sure I use "Auto Retract" on the leveling system when packing up. Raise the four rear jacks just enough to clear the ground and do what you've gotta do to get connected. Then hit the Auto Retract and let it do it's thing.

On ours, the manifold in the front battery compartment had a leak. It was allowing the front jacks to retract when sitting unhitched. The manifold was replaced under warranty in the first month. It was only a slight drip and almost not detectable except for some telltale puddle of hydraulic fluid in the battery compartment.
