Hi, I am at a loss, I just replaced LQ trailer batteries that would not hold a full charge, with 2 new fully charged Interstate 12 volt batteries, copied wiring diagram before unhooking the old batteries, re-wired back same as before; everything starts, generator, AC, heat, lights, refrigeration, except for the electric jack. Electric jack is wired directly to one battery, jack worked prior to new battery replacement. There is no burn smell, all electric jack connections are clean.
Any ideas of what I need to check, do next? Thank you, MsSilver

I have same problem, got new Interstate batteries, but when I use elec jack, it drains them down to 1/4 empty. Sundowner dealer said elec jacks are a frequent source of battery problems. Have not yet gotten mine down to get it looked at, so will let you know if that is true. My Equalizer was an add-on. Don't know if that is why it drains them so fast.
