Bill,
Your leveling jacks are double acting jacks. Therefore they are both extended and retracted hydraulically (no spring). That means that there should be a minimal change in reservoir fluid level with the jacks extended because as they extend, the fluid below the piston is vented back into the reservoir and vice versa.
Since your pump is running, your failure to retract is probably a malfunction in the BCS conversion, a malfunctioning solenoid, or a bad connection. Call Ken Carpenter at BCS tomorrow and he should be able to walk you through a diagnostic process to get the jacks refracted.
