New Warning light - What does it mean ?

Couldn't find it in manuals and it happened after dip in road and during a hard brake...

The light came on and a louder than usual alarm for a short period.

thinking maybe air bag leak ???? Appreciate your insight!

It could be the levelers down warning light. I have had a light similar to that on both of my Winnebago's and along with the alarm tell you that you leveling jacks are down.

The light wouldn't go off on my Sightseer but I never worried about it as I always visually check my jacks before moving anyway.

That's the "Back to the Future" indicator. It shows you braked so hard the present slid forward, causing the rig to end up back in 2015!

Looks like the "jacks extended" indicator. If it lights while braking hard or in sharp turns, the hydraulic fluid reservoir may be low. On my 2010, there's also an annoying alarm.

I would suggest putting the jacks down and the antenna up and just turning on the engine...On my previous Adventurer a similar light warned on these two items. A heavy bump might create jack movement if the springs are weakening. The antenna might not be firmly down. Just thinkin

Good Idea !!!! and Thanks for the pic !!!


That's what it was - Jacks Down...
Guess the previous owner lost the sticker somehow.

Now that they know,
it's not such an emergency since they can see the jacks are up ...


Thanks so much - they were worried enough about the drive home with all the rain and cold temps.
