Rebuilding Six packs
#1

I rebuilt both "six packs" with Tom's kits.  Over the years since owning the coach had the front six pack acting weird on different occasions.  Nothing that was consistent just intermittently wonky.   Verifying that I did not hook something up wrong I came across I had my wife operate the HWH control panel will checking to see if the solenoids were activating.  Referring to the drawing (attached) of the six pack that I have annotated.  The driver"s raise/lower solenoid never operated in the conditions I outlined in my notes. 

Thinking this might be a normal condition I asked another owner and he assured me that it was not.  Did some troubleshooting by checking fuses in the HWH control box and connections inside the box.  Further digging, found the "Driver's" side raise solenoid +12vdc pin pushed back in the Delphi Weather Pack connector.  I had not disturbed the connectors when rebuilding the six pack (also had not disturbed all the other connectors as well). Looks like the original solenoid and it's been that way for a long time.  Also, found two other weather pack connectors not seated very well.  Verified the solenoid worked by applying 12v to the solenoid.  Verified 12v coming out of the HWH computer.  Confirmed operational once all hooked back up.....that one is good.  Drivers side lower Solenoid.  Checked all fuses and connections then verified the solenoid worked by applying 12v to the solenoid....that worked properly.  Checked for 12v coming out of the computer and that was good to go.  applied 12v to the solenoid and that was good as well.  Cleaned connector and verified operation....so that is now working.  This was a good exercise on understanding how the system is supposed to work.....I have been having weird things happening, that did not make sense, over the last five years, that are explainable now. 

This was a good exercise on HWH leveling system operation that was fun to figure out.
