RV Hydraulics - jacks and slides

July 25, 2007

The motorhome has been to the shop for lube-oil-filter and general maintenance check… AND for the hydraulic failure experienced on the way home from Colorado.  Shop, in tandem with HWH (hydraulics mfg) believe the problem is a bad pump and a new one is on it’s way from Iowa - scheduled to be installed on Mon, 7/30.  Too bad it wasn’t a fuse…  But, I want to document the fuse locations - for RV friends the Smith’s also Adventurer owners and an ORS member with a similar Winnebago hydraulic system. 

Some photos of the hydraulic pump/motor, inline fuses and what I think is the hydraulic fuse box (this post to document locations of fuses and hydraulics for jacks and slides):

Pump

Pump - looking down into the engine compartment, just to the passenger side of the middle, right against the front grille. 

Inline Fuses

Above - the elusive inline fuses - circled with white….  These were “buried” in amongst the wiring for the slide-out solenoids and jack valves.  I started tracing wires away from the pump to find them - once I had the description of what to look for. You can hopefully see the fuse I’m holding - I have the cap back to expose the actual fuse - others have their caps on.  The photo is taken from underneath - I’m on the ground looking up into the engine compartment at the underside of the hydraulic pump.

Location

Above - looking in from the driver door under the steering column - behind the carpeted “board” is where the Above right “box” is.

Actual Box

You can just see part of the HWH (hydraulics mfg).
