If your Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric 5th Wheel RV Leveling System w Touchpad and Remote # LC675817 getting a time out error I recommend first making sure you're on level ground when you're trying to auto level.
If you are no, then you may have to move your trailer to more level ground before trying again. It also wouldn't hurt to make sure your batteries are charged and that your wiring is good and not damaged.
If everything looks good then I recommend resetting the leveling memory. To do this, follow the below steps:
1. In manual mode, run the jacks to level the trailer. This is best achieved by placing a level in the center of the trailer and leveling it both front to back and then side to side. (See “Basic Jack Operation” for instructions on how to manually operate the system).
2. Once the trailer is level, turn off the touch pad.
3. With the touch pad off, press and release the “FRONT” button five (5) times and then press and release the “REAR” button five (5) times.
4. The touch pad will flash and beep and the display will read “ZERO POINT CALIBRATION ENTER to set, Power to Exit”.
5. To set the current position as the zero point, press the “ENTER” button.
6. LCD display will read “Zero point stability check”.
7. LCD display will read “Zero point set successfully” once process is complete.
8. The system will set this point as its level state and the touch pad will turn off.
If you're still having issues come on back and we can try some other troubleshooting.
