troubleshooting

If all or any of the jacks or landing legs fail to operate:

1.Check whether the 12VDC battery is fully charged. You may need to recharge it.

2.Check that the camper jack cords are securely plugged into the exterior sockets. You may need to pull a plug out and replug it.

3.If the motor will not extend/retract the jack and the motor is making a ratcheting sound (clutch slipping), do not use the manual override. Immediately contact an Atwood Service Center and have jack replaced. Do not use the jack until replaced.

4.Assure the activation switch is turned on. The LED on the switch pad should be lit.

5.Check that you are within 20 feet of the camper.

6.Replace the 9V battery or plug the audio cable (R) into the side of the remote

(P) and the opposite end into the front of the activation switch (Q).

7.Check that the battery terminals are clean and have no corrosion.

8.Look to see if other radio frequency devices such as an automobile key fob, cellular phone, TV remote control, are operating within range of your remote. These devices will make the jacks pause. Lift your finger from the button on the remote and re-press the button. Also the audio cable can carry the signal, plug the audio cable (R) into the side of the remote (P) and the opposite end into

the front of the activation switch.

If the jacks keep running, hold down the power-select on the remote until the LED turns off. This will shut the power off to the jacks. If not, unplug the jack(s) from its (their) exterior socket(s).
