Leveling system won't come on

[NSHBP]

We are 2000 miles away from home, in CA, hot as blue blazes, and our leveling system won't come on!
No lights, nothing.
After several calls to Thor, as well as our dealership, trying everything under the sun, still nothing. Of course now, everyone is closed for the day.
Any suggestions?
And thanks!

Etd. We are in a 2016 Thor Windsport 27K

I take it that they have had you check all the circuit breakers and fuses. If need be, you can manually lower and raise your leveling jacks. There should be a procedure on how to do it in your manual.

Same thing happened to us recently on a trip. No power or slides, spent several hours trying to resolve it.

Finally, I called Thor. Turns out there is a unknown (to me anyway) circuit breaker that had tripped - I think it is a 60 amp breaker. In my coach the breaker is up near the top of the house battery compartment on the left hand side. It was hard to find and once found hard tell it had tripped and it did not look like a normal breaker. I would have never found it without talking to Thor, I had looked several times in the compartment with no luck.

If I remember correctly, there are two large wires that come into it from opposite sides and are offset from each other. I could not tell it had tripped until I reached to the far side of the breaker and pushed a yellow (maybe red) piece back in. It should have a small yellow (maybe red?) test button on the top of the breaker. Once I reset it, all worked again.

There was nothing in the manual about this breaker and other Tuscany owners were also unaware of it.

Hopefully, once you find this breaker all will work.

Your memory isn't too bad, as it is a circuit breaker with a red button and a yellow lever, (usually). The red button trips the breaker manually, and the yellow lever resets the breaker when you push it up to latch it in place again.


Here's a picture I stole from another thread:




On my Windsport, on the initial shake-down trip, we had intermittent electrical problems with most of the coach going between 12 and 0 volts. Found (eventually!) the circuit breaker yellow lever was not completely latched in place and would intermittently open and close with vibration.

You could have more than one of those breakers. On my coach there is one in the engine compartment and another in the battery bay.

On my2016 Vegas it is easy to trip the breaker when you change batteries. On mine it took a day or longer till the breaker reset and dropped out my generator. Beware when replacing batteries.
