On my last MH that switch on each of the jacks was called at "Reed Switch" made for Kwikee jack system. A reed switch is a magnetic switch so as stated, if the any jack is showing silver then that reed switch is not making contact and an alarm will sound, or if the switch is bad.
What year is your MH? Who manufactured the jacks?
When my 2015 sits in storage for a few months, when I turn on the ignition the jacks down light lights and the bell dings. I just turn on the controller and do a "retract." Don't have to worry about it for another few monts. When we are on the road, the extending and retracting when we travel takes care of it.
I'm not going to go into my long story but in my 2008 Winnebago Destination 39W I went 10 years with the jack alarm dinging - and was doing it going down the road. I put a toggle switch on the power wire to the controller and it stopped the alarm. The jacks never extended more than 1 to 2 inches. Technician said the the pressure would not let them fall unless total pressure was lost.
