Hi everyone. Steve here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at our RV landing gear switch. It runs on 12 volts of power and it's in black. Now this switch is gonna replace your extend retract switch on that fifth wheel or tongue jack with a momentary on off momentary on operation. So as you can see, it's labeled Extend Retract, and you've got the four prongs here in the back and that should match up with your wiring that you already have.
This is a cutout dimension of 1.3 inches by three quarter inch, and this is a direct replacement from the manufacturer, so you can be sure it's gonna work as long as you have those same dimensions and those same four prongs on the back. Folks, that's gonna wrap it up for our look together. I'm Steven. Thanks for watching.

Just what I needed to replace the malfunctioning switch I had.
Prompt delivery as well.
OEM replacement, too bad when I started researching this part I was directed to buy the wrong part for fitment. Once I figured it out, I contacted etrailer and Carol C took care of me. Thanks, because of your help, I have been out camping twice.
This is basically the same switch that is on most 5th wheels or trailers with 12 volt electric stabilizer jacks. Lippert has them in their catalog for $30+ dollars and in 6 years we have replaced four of them. Always a good idea to keep a spare while you’re on the road.
This switch replaced my old one and works amazing on my trailer jacks I was very happy with etrailer fast shipping !!!
This switch has been in use for about 8 months. Installation and functionality was good when first installed. Now, the switch sticks when actuating it, the internal spring does not return the switch to the home position. This is somewhat inconvenient, as you have to carefully monitor the function of the stabilizers it actuates.
Switch on my Atwood tongue jack [ 2017 Airstream Flying Cloud ] died. The RV Landing Gear Switch was a plug & play drop in replacement.
This switch is the one that RAM uses for one if their RV trailer jacks i ordered. But to reorder a replacement, it took apx. 4 months to get! To bad the RAM company in Vancouver, WA. wouldn't sell me one. Not etrailers fault. They did finally get me one. Very appreciative!
Super fast shipping! Part as described. Reasonable prices too.
I thought customer service was a thing of the past. Jamie provided all the help I needed to ensure my replacement switch was the best available
I WAS DISAPOINTED THAT THIS SWITCH DID NOT COME WITH THE RUBBER WEATHER PROOF SEAL AND THE SWITCH ITSELF WAS A BIT SMALLER THAN THE ORIGINAL SWITCH. I HAD TO MODIFY THE SWITCH TO GET IT TO FIT TIGHTLY. ELECTRICALLY THE SWITCH WORKS FINE AND SHOULD HOLD UP.
Exactly what I need to repair my trailer jack
Worked great as a replacement, I love all of the same key for all storages.
Great fitting switch
This replaced a switch on my 2007 Laredo 5th wheel that wore out and the new one works great!
Perfect for replacing a faulty switch on my travel trailer.
This company was great! Thank you for the fast service of getting the part out.
Excellent.
perfect.. will order again soon
The switch works perfect, but it took two months to get it

Still working great
Showed up on time and worked as describ ed
I cannot believe your service!!! First, I did a google search on a Sunday. Your site came up with the one of the parts I wanted, but not the other. I called you support line thinking I would get a recording on a Sunday, but "No" a real person. I told her what I was looking for, she went to other sites to get sku's to cross reference in your site, but was unable to find it, but she spent the time for a $xx item. I ordered the part you had on Sunday, with standard shipping, and I received it on Weds. I live in the middle of no where, and [other online stores] can't get me my orders that fast.

I don't normally give reviews, and when I do, it is normally to complain. I just can't believe how good you guys are!!!
I included a photo. You can see I installed the switch that you have, we will see how long it takes for the other switch from a different company (and I might add, a simple on off switch at three times what this switch cost from you) I broke the switches driving my tractor with the box scraper too close. Luckily it was only the switches I hit.
Tried to find this Atwood landing gear part only to find they were bought out by another company and my lift was no-longer available and parts are scarce to find. I had previously visited the etrailer sight for running lights that pace american trailer used and figured i would give them a try. Low and behold they had a switch similar to the one I had. I ordered the switch thinking that I would have to modify my lift body to accommodate the switch, when I recieved the switch I found that it fit perfectly and according to the wiring diagram the people at Atwood had wired it incorrectly. Im happy I no longer have to use the rescue hand crank.
Switch matched the original and operated perfectly. Ordering was easy and received in a timely fasion.
As advertise. Was easy to connect.

still working.
Delivery came much sooner than promised. The new switch was slightly larger than the one I was replacing. I shaved a small amount off the jack shroud and it fit perfectly. I had the whole thing replaced in less than 30 min. Jack is fully functional again. Thanks for the quick service.
