The chassis breaker sends power to the Thor fuse panel down by the drivers left foot. This panel has all the fuses and relays in the front cap installed by Thor (fans lights, mirrors, and control switches). The exception is the 12 volt receptacles on the dash. All Ford stuff is powered by the Ford power center under the hood.



As for the jacks (levelers), the power to the panel comes through the fuse panel in the front cap, but the actual power for the electrical hydraulic pump is from the house battery(s) through a 100 amp circuit breaker in the house battery compartment. The same 100 amp circuit breaker also sends power to the generator's starter motor. If either battery is below 12.4 volts, you will get a low voltage warning on the jack panel. If the voltage is below 10.5 volts on either battery, you can't move the jacks (up or down) until the batteries are charged. This is why it is best practice to let the engine run for at least 5 minutes before using the jack panel. If you have been dry camping for a spell, you may have to run the generator as well as the engine to get the jacks to retract. This should have been covered by the thorough PDI.
