I have to wait about 10 seconds and then I hear an audible click near my battery box and I can run the hydraulics for a few seconds before it stops again. It takes me about 5-6 cycles to raise my landing hear and about 3 cycles to move my slides. The problem seems to be getting worse and the hydraulics run for less time before cutting out.
I'll check for loose wiring tonight and see what I find.
It is the auto resetting breaker. I found no loose wires and could feel the breaker every time it reset. I also briefly bypassed the breaker and the hydraulic pump ran fine.
Line two of them up side by side. Jump from top post to top post with a short jumper wire.
Then jump bottom post to bottom post with another short jumper wire.
Then put the battery cable on...let's say the bottom right corner post, and install the slide room wire on the...(opposite) let's say top left corner post.
The power still goes through the breakers, in one end and out the other, but the two breakers are wired parallel for protection, but can carry enough amps to do the job.
im also experiencing the same problems as tcr1 but this is on a 2006 Forest River All American Sport 385CKTS TH.. mine has done it since day 1 from the dealer but mine is out of warranty now ..
my Hydralics are made by lippert..dont know about any of you guys expericencing the problems with different brands of rigs.
i also get the audible click from the battery area... sounds like i need to try bypassing the auto resetting breaker for a test but what does it look like???
