Auto-level..sleep mode

Just a quick question..
When you have the coach leveling system in sleep mode (supposed to wake up every 30 minutes or so)
When it "wakes up" to check for level.. does the lights on the touch pad light up?
Just spent several coach bucks here @ Oregon Motorcoach, and I don't know if they got it correct or not.
thnx

On mine, you will see a light (very briefly) (fast flashing when complete, I think) if it decides it needs to re-level.  Don't know if you see a light if it wakes up and decides no action required.

The light will come on before before the sleep check mode and only if you're out of level. When the out of level is detected the HWH will level it and the light will go out. It will not come on again unless you go out of level again.

You should never know the out of level is being checked......unless you are out of level.

FYI....I had my R/R drop about 1" to 1 1/2"over night (not in auto level mode). Found it to be the R/R raise ( not lower) solenoid. Also found a bunch of leaks in the front/rear air tank fittings. Had to look really close to find them.

From the HWH manual for the 600 system. This is what ours does:

Press the "AIR" button once to enter the air mode. The AIR
indicator light and the four AIR BAG warning lights will glow steady.
Press the "AIR" button a second time. The AIR indicator
light will start flashing and the air leveling will begin.

When all four yellow LEVEL SENSING lights are out the
leveling is complete. The AIR indicator light will stop flashing
and turn steady red. The processor is now in a SLEEP MODE
for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes the processor will recheck the vehicle level,
make any corrections required, and return to the SLEEP MODE.
This will continue until the system is turned off by pushing
the "OFF" button or the transmission is taken out of the parking
position and the park brake is released.

Our light stays steady red, unless it wakes up and re-levels. At that time the red light will blink, and you will see any yellow lights if the coach has become un-level

My mechanic found all our level side leaks after our purchase coming up on six years ago.

We are able to turn off the panel after leveling and the coach never moves.  Knock on wood....

Ours also acts exactly like this.  The only odd thing I have noticed about our coach...after being in "auto level" mode for several days without needing to make any adjustment, the red light will go out and the system will turn off.  It's kinda like the system decides it's not gonna be needed, so it turns itself off to conserve battery power.  Which I always thought was very considerate!  8)

Interesting...Ours stays on red as long as I don't turn it off. We have been parked now for 2 1/2 weeks now, it's still on. Hasn't re-leveled since the 1st day, that I know of.
