I believe the manual jack nut is behind the propane tank on the street side of your 337. I believe that was where it was on my '14 337.

So far, pretty much so good. Was able to raise the nose, unhitch the Silverado, and achieve F/R level.
Found the plastic plug (on my 337, completely hidden by the propane tank) and the shaft behind it. Tried to figure out how to use a drill on it, finally bit the bullet and used the manual crank. (You can now call me Popeye!)
I expected there to be a hex nut to put a socket on. Instead, it's a round shaft that has a bump that fits in a slot on the crank handle. No way I could see using a drill and socket, unless I somehow hacksawed a slot in a socket. Anyway, manual cranking wasn't all that bad with frequent breaks.
Now... On to replacing the switch. It appears to be a pretty common item (note to self: maybe get a spare). Amazon lists about a half dozen different ones, from $10 to $45. Any recommendations, brands to avoid, features to look for?

There is previous discussion about these switches on this forum somewhere (that I can't find at the moment . . . ) that references there being two different versions of this switch. One rated at 16A (the PN below) and others rated at 30A. The original switch was rated at 30A. If you can find the 30A version, this would probably be a better choice.
