Looked for a previous discussion, no luck. In August, 2020, my right rear jack wouldn't stay down. My knee jerk reaction was the jack was leaking, needed rebuilt. Last fall the jack failed again. Now I realize that there is no up and down on the jack itself, it's all controlled by the solenoids. Searching how the jacks work, I realized that maybe the solenoid that controls the lifting or lowering of the jack may be bad. If that solenoid is always open, there wouldn't be any lifting. There is no sign of leakage on the outside. It worked for 3 1/2 years. Any suggestions? I just bought a quart of ACDelco automatic transmission fluid Type III (H) on Amazon. Maybe it has come back to life. Gary 05 AMB DST

Not to change the subject, but, what was the size of the wipers from the factory? Gary 05 AMB DST

Sounds like the park/stop switch is involved. Gary 05 AMB DST

On the front of the slide between the window and the outer flange, there's that black cover piece. I believe that controls the slide movement. There should be one on the end wall. There is something that controls the slide movement. I'm sure someone will explain it. My neighbor had a problem with his. I never got involved because my slides don't have it. Gary 05 AMB DST

Have they totally pulled away and the spring section of the topper, on the slide out, had a free wheeling spin? It's important to lock down the spring loaded roll so the spring doesn't unwind. Gary 05 AMB DST

Does one switch control the lights or does each light have its own switch? Gary 05 AMB DST

Andrew P, your Sailrite cording is a hollow pipe. When I replaced my toppers, Stone Vos sent a solid "rod" with the toppers. That is what Monaco used from the factory. Gary 05 AMB DST

What was the length of the Google search rods? Gary 05 AMB DST

The white plastic is probably UHMW. My 05 Ambassador has a beveled slide lift the whole length of the slide on the floor and the slide has a beveled edge the whole length, the bottom of the slide is all UHMW. Very expensive. With my self-made plates, the center of the slide barely touches the beveled cam. On the later models, Monaco probably realized they didn't need so much UHMW and just put it on the ends of the slide.

Tom, it was a serious question of what is better, no derogatory statement was intended. Gary 05 AMB DST

So you're saying Chinese is better than German? Gary 05 AMB DST

What did you do with the shower drain and water lines or did you raise the pantry? I didn't realize there was 11 1/2" width there. Gary 05 AMB DST

Be interesting to see where its going. Gary 05 AMB DST
