It sometimes flashes some numbers on the display during the leveling process, but doesn't leave them there long enough to make any sense out of them. At the end of the process, it either gives you it's "Success!" proclamation or an error code (about 50/50 so far). The Owner's Manual, which covers the whole Reflection series, including the 150s, isn't a lot of help. It describes two other controllers, but not this one. Between piecing together the instructions there and simple exploration, I am now pretty competent with this controller. When it gets done, I check the result with a physical level and make manual adjustments as needed. I've just concluded that it's one more piece of technology that sometimes works. That seems to be the way of the world these days!

That looks like the same controller that I have in my rig. Except mine is right side up.lol. If I scroll through the up and down buttons mine will take me to a screen that shows the degrees of being level. Works well. I did have my auto level tell me that the rig was level and I checked this screen and it showed it as being off by just a little. I then manually leveled it with the control pad and then did a reset. Now when I auto level it shows it as being right at zero and my entry door closes much easier.

I have the electric jacks on my rig with the auto level. After the first couple of times that It lifted the tires on one side off the ground, I would wait until it said level, and tires off the ground, I would then hit the retract all button until it lowered the rv some and then would abort the retract all process. I then hit auto level and it would bring the rig to level without hardly raising it at all. The problem of leveling high has seemed to correct itself after doing that a couple of times.

Allow me to post my 2 cents here as I'm fairly new at 5th wheeling. With the little experience I've had with the Auto Level, I'm not very impressed! Sure it works fantastic at the dealership on perfectly level tarmac. Take it home to my fairly level driveway and voila, auto level doesn't work as expected. What I have discovered whether it is true or not, the leveling system is happy when the jacks extend roughly the same distance, and you have to start with an almost level RV to begin with. So what I use is nesting 2x8's with wheel chocks attached to them (purchased from Amazon). I just bought myself an auto level pro (also purchased from Amazon) that I can use on my phone app to see my RV level as I'm backing into a site. If my app tells me I am low on one side by 1.5 inches, I will add only one 2x8. I will also add a 1.5 inch block of wood under the leveling jacks on the same side. No more guessing or getting in out of the truck to see how much to need level the rig. Also, the hitch height feature is not that helpful at all. Once the auto level fails and you start maneuvering the jacks in manual, the hitch height memory disappears! Lame. With the auto level pro, you can record the hitch height and easily return your RV to that height.

I moved my trailer today and set it up on my driveway, which has a fair amount of slope. Auto-level again left the back tires almost two inches off the ground. When I manually retracted the rear jacks, there was a bang under the trailer. The only thing I can see is that the spring retainers between the axles are cockeyed now:
(Hopefully this one will land right side up!) The retainers would normally be pretty symmetrical. Does someone know what is going on there? I have manually leveled the trailer and all four wheels are now firmly on the ground. It made a small improvement on this picture, but it's still not anywhere near straight.
BTW, I found the leveling indicators referenced by @lorend when manually leveling it. When I get it to where the screen says it's level, a carpenter's level on the floor of the trailer says it is badly tail high. (enough that you can tell just by walking in the trailer). That seems to give support to the earlier suggestions that one of the sensors is loose or out of position.
Any help with the spring issue would be most appreciated. Now I'm afraid to pull it and I'm planning lo leave on a five-week trek out west in two weeks!2022 Reflection 320 MKS
