Hello Dan, it sounds like you are having a problem with your Lippert hydraulic leveling system. is this a new system you just installed recently? Or is this an older system that has worked before, and now it is not working? What have you tested already? Are you able to manually retract the legs? Or are they permanently stuck in the down position?

Try manually retracting the jacks and check for any fluid leaks. Try checking the wiring harness connections at both the controller and the jack, check the harness for any damage, and check the fuses at the controller, replacing anything that is damaged as necessary. If you do this or have done this and you are still having issues please let me know and I can help you troubleshoot further. Any additional information or detail you can provide will help me be more accurate with the troubleshooting.

When I pick my jacks they all come up fine then one or two on passenger side will leak down 2 or 3 inches when I go back and raise them again they usely stay up
