Hello All, I am very new to all this so please bare with me.
We have 2004 Sundowner 3 horse with LQ.
The generator went out 2 weeks ago, fuel pump we were told.
Everything worked when we dropped it off.
Went to pick it up legs would not work to get trailer on truck, had to jump it.
Got it home and plugged it in NO Power.
Changed the 30 amp fuse bought new batteries and the slide out and landing gear still wont work. Slide out sounds like it has power and wants to work.
Does anyone have any thoughts??
Thanks !
Dawn

Make sure the batteries are properly connected.
Also, there will be 2 circuit breakers inside the coach, close to the batteries- usually in a closet or under sofa. Make sure that they are not tripped by pushing the little black button on the end of them. They can interrupt 12V current flow.
If everything works but the hydraulics- check the wire from the batteries to the pump. You dont mention if it is a hydraulic s/o, but if it is, one pump powers both, and the pump requires a lot of power so may be wired directly to the batteries.

Monday Morning Quarterback ALERT...Ah...the moment the legs didn't work...you should have checked all of your electrics before you left the shop...:( What exactly did they do?...If there was any welding involved did they disconnect your batteries BEFORE they welded?
