Slides & auto level

Re: 2017 Seneca 37HJ
No power to auto-level, slides or steps.

Had to relocate the coach today to a different site in the park. Everything went in and up OK but when we went to set up, we had no power to the leveler, slides or steps.
Ideas?

Did you check the breaker on top of the cab batteries?
Also could be a bad chassis ground. Look under the rear cap by the hitch for a large bundle of white wires and check the screw didn’t break off. Also the same thing under the coach steps. I have attached two threads that should help. Keep us posted

Thanks for the links.


Jayco motorized is supposed to send me a photo of the 100A fuse in the battery bay but I haven't received it yet.

It was the breaker on top of the cab batteries.
It controlled the levelers, coach steps, and shore power reel.
I was mistaken regarding the slides.
Thanks for all the help. Have a good weekend.

Glad you figured it out. Now you need to figure out what is the cause of the trip. That breaker on top of the battery seems to be a little sensitive. I figured out that anytime someone used the microwave on batteries alone it would trip my breaker.

Had it happen again on the way into San Antonio for new tires.


The stereo audio went out until I got back to the rv park and reset the breaker. Does anyone know where the audio amp is on these units? The Pioneer control panel with camera display never lost power, just the speaker power.

My breaker on the battery hold down use to pop fairly frequently until I discovered a loose positive battery cable on the engine batteries. Tightened the cable on the battery post and haven't had a problem for 2 years

The only time I have had to reset this switch on the chassis batteries is when I replaced the coach batteries and I must have caused a short when I rewired the new batteries. So one time in 5 years. if you having that many issues I would look for loose connections someplace causing that high draw.
