Troubleshooting Lippert Electric Stabilizer Jack Not Working  

Question:

I have the Lippert electric stabilizer jacks on my TT and the rear one all of a sudden stopped working. It worked fine while camping last weekend but when I parked it for storage the rear jack would not extend. The motor seemed to be working fine so it seems like it might be electrical. Could this 6-amp auto reset breaker be causing motor not to work or is there a fuse somewhere I should be looking for first? Thanks

We have actually heard from Lippert about this type of issue and they recommend replacing the 6 amp fuse with a 30 amp fuse. This should resolve the issues you're describing.

My problem was the same. At first, a test of the components it was the breaker that was the issue. but now, in order to operate the rear stabilizer I need to manually begin to turn it and then it will operate. I have lubricated the track and that has not made a difference. The motor will run up and down once you turn the stabilizer manually. I purchased the breaker from erailer and not longer feel that is the present issue.

Honestly a lot of issues like this tend to be caused by a weak battery. I would make certain that the battery is in good condition and fully charged (you should be getting 13+ volts of power right after the battery). Also make sure the ground and power wires are still securely attached.

I'm having the same issue mentioned by Derek. Both jacks were working fine while camping. Needed to raise my front and rear jacks in order to change a tire. The front one worked fine, the rear one did not. Just to make sure I understand; you're saying that Lippert recommended replacing the 6-amp auto reset breaker with a 30-amp auto reset breaker to fix this problem. Correct? Can you recommend a 30-amp auto reset breaker that I could purchase? Thanks.

@CraigB Yes, that is correct but it's also assuming you have a good battery and no wiring issues. You should be getting 13+ volts of power off the battery and ensure you have a solid connection on your ground. If this all checks out then you can swap out that 6-amp braker with the 30 Amp Circuit Breaker - Cycling Auto Reset - Metal - Type item # PK54230.

@JerredH we tried replacing the breaker, and have power connection and the rear jack works, but we cannot get the front to drop or raise. Any other ideas?

@KaleighR Have you tried checking the motor on the front jack? If not you should try connecting it directly to a battery and seeing if it works.
