LCI leveling system question

[whitesub93]

I noticed today that my RV (parked in drive) was sitting lower in the back or higher in the front. I looked at the leveling system control panel and there was an amber light flashing on the left button on the diamond shaped panel. Any thoughts?

Purely speculation on my part…if rig has been sitting for a while - try cycling the system several times…run legs up and down 5-7 times (not the auto level) and run the rooms out 2 or 3 times. Then try running auto-level.

Our rig sat for months during Covid. We got ready to take our first trip in a year. The driver side legs started coming down - would not stay up. Info from reading this forum I learned about air bubbles in the system and running cycles to clear it…this worked and the legs stayed up. Even if you are stationary for a long time you need to exercise the hydraulic system. Of course you should look at all your hose connections for signs of hydraulic fluid leaks. Try it and report back. This may be a free fix!

Joe, Give Lippert/LCI Customer Service a call and ask them if there is a problem. They are the best Customer Service I have ever dealt with. If they are concerned, they will run you through a diagnostic test over the phone and tell you what the problem is and how to fix it right over the phone. I have even had them send me parts at no charge. You can also go into the Archives and I'm sure there are several postings concerning this problem that you can review and work it out that way also. Good luck and let us know what you come up with and the resolution to the problem.
