So...
Last week we picked up our Solitude after having both hydraulic landing gears replaced.
When we got to our storage area and unhitched I pressed the "Auto Level" button and walked away. Unfortunately, when I looked back at the camper the rear stabilizers on the Drivers side were hanging in mid air along with the Passenger side landing gear. Some how this didn't seem normal, so, I retracted the rear stabilizers (thinking the system had some type of air lock or something like that) and the front of the coach quickly dropped about 6 inches. I finished retracting the rear stabilizers and raised the front of the coach to try "Auto Level" again, same results.
I hitched it back up and took it back to the Dealer. The Dealer had a tech come out and look at the coach and while he seemed knowledgeable, he insisted that the control board for the leveling system had gone bad. I, of course, wasn't buying that since it had just been in the shop to have the landing gears replaced.
Turns out that the tech had reversed two of the hoses attached to the right landing gear.
So, if your Auto Leveling system ever acts weird, or strange, and the stabilizer legs stop deploying in mid-air, somebody messed up installing your landing gear jacks.
