    Have you tried doing a complete shutdown, hook up the truck, raise all jacks, completely disconnect your trailer 12v and converter if on shore power, then reconnect power, dosconnect and try again.

    Thank you for your input . I don't think it is a valve hanging up because the leg with the problem goes up and down fine and stops , I tried hooking it back up to the truck start over but still did the same thing !!

    If you did the cpmplete restart of the system and tried again with same results i would def. give GD a call. Depending who you speak too will determine the outcome, some will say goto the dealer, others are more willing to help on the phone. Ive had more of the help on the phone vs goto dealer experiences. Let us know what GD tells you.

    Be sure you try a complete power down. Disconnect truck, shore power AND battery. Then try again. Just in case it works.

    Well I have tried every thing suggested to me and it still does the same thing ?? I'm going to be at the Nor Cal Rally this weekend so I'll ask the rep's from GD , LCI and B&B RV if they have any thoughts on what the problem can be !!

    [QUOTE=sptrucksbyed;127214]I have a new 2018 398M and when I use the Auto Level it all starts out good and it seems to level out then out of now where it will extend one of the center legs out and lift the whole side of the trailer off the ground !!

    Update !!
    I finally had time to take the trailer into the dealer and they were able to solve the problem , what the told me it was is that the rear sensor what mounted in the wrong direction !!

    Now that you mention it... I remember the LCI guys talking about it at the Nor Cal Rally. Seems some sensors were loose, some were wrong direction and some actually laying on the coroplast. Good thing to check first if resets and such don't correct problems.

    Having an issue with the front landing gear "popping" as we sit here on the site....

    First noticed it several evenings ago, as we sat outside and it didn't seem like a big deal, but this evening as I sit in the trailer, I've felt a slight "movement" when
    I've heard the "popping" noise.
    I'm guessing that it's an issue with maybe air in the hydraulic lines for the front landing gear?

    Any remedies?

    You need to add a quart of “anti-stiction” fluid to you hydraulic fluid. Many threads about it. Search popping leveling.
