Issue With Leveling Jacks

Mornin', all! Yesterday I went to the storage facility to check on our Precept and noticed that the right rear jack was partially deployed - about halfway down. The other three were are fully retracted. I'm pretty sure that they all fully retracted on our last outing a couple months ago. Also all three batteries were down (will be going back today to take them out and bring them home to charge), so I didn't try to see if I could sort it out.


Anyone have an idea of what may be the cause or what to do to bring the faulty one up?


Thanks,
Mickey

I stored my old MH on the jacks just to keep some weight off tires

Follow-up: This morning I brought the coach to a campground to hook up to shore power to give the batteries a full charge. While there, I called Equalizer Systems - it's their "Smart Level" system. Told them my situation, and added that I started to pull the control panel from the console below the driver's side window to see if maybe a connection was loose. I'd removed three of the four mounting screws, and the panel indicator lights came on. Charles, the tech at Equalizer Systems service, picked up on that and had me unplug the panel and jump a couple of the connections and the jack retracted. He asked me about the size of the mounting screws and when I described them, he said that Jayco didn't use the mounting screws supplied with the panel and instead used larger ones. Apparently that disrupted a circuit or two inside the panel! He's sending me a new panel and I'll be returning the old one (and the screws...).


Big THANK YOU to Charles and Equalizer Systems!
