What's wrong?
The jack switch on the 2023 Dutchmen Kodiak, Coleman, and Aspen Trail travel trailers controls the electric stabilizer jacks. Those jacks are meant to move down when the trailer is parked and leveled, then retract fully before travel. The switch sends the electrical command that extends or retracts them.
On affected trailers, the switch is protected against water from the front, but the back side is exposed on certain models. Road spray and salt can reach the back of the switch. When moisture gets inside, the switch can short electrically and send power when the owner did not command it. That short can let the stabilizer jacks drop while the trailer is being transported.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first sign can be a stabilizer jack moving on its own or found down when the trailer should be in its travel position.
