I called Lippert and they said that most likely the reason I am having this issue is because the two house batteries are not supplying enough AMP's to control the jack system. He recommended adding two more (total of 4) 6 volt batteries to the house. Which could mean buying 4 new batteries as I have heard that adding new to old is not the way to go.

Going from 2-6 volt to 4-6 volt batteries is something you will never regret. It solves a lot of low voltage problems as well as allowing me to park in Walmart all night with out running the generator to recharge the batteries. With only 2 batteries, after about 7 hours, I would be awaken by a constant beeping. It was the alarm informing me of the inverter voltage dropping to low to run the fridge.
Replace the 2 Harris batteries with 4 Duracell 230 Amp Deep Cycle golf cart batteries from Batteries Plus...you'll be glad you did!
