Title: HWH Hard Reset Switch
Post by: Norm Green on August 18, 2012, 08:22:07 PM

I have been trying to research and resolve an issue with my HWH Air Leveling System on my recently acquired '06 Patriot Thunder.  It worked when I picked it up but has since stopped working.  I get no lights on the control pad and only an HWH Warning light on the dash.  In reading the manual, it mentions that there should be a "hard reset switch" that I can push to reset the system and that this switch is located on the dash.  I can not locate the switch anywhere and was hoping someone can help me locate it on this coach.  The HWH model is a 2000 series.

Not likely the same place on yours, but on my 05 the hard reset switch is in the electrical bay.

Norm, take the screws out of the hwh panel and see if the connector underneath has come unplugged.

I have checked the side console control panel and everything appears tight.  I will check the electrical bay to see if I can spot some sort of reset button.  When reading the manual's description of the reset, my coach is doing exactly what they say it will do: no lights on control, warning light on dash and when I start the engine, the bags air up as they should.

I want to thank all that replied, and Jeff, you were right, the reset is in the electrical bay.  I pushed the reset and everything came back on line.  I can now cancell my service appointment for next Tuesday.  Sure feels good when things workout.  :)

Isn't this forum great. It's helped me save a few bucks or at least narrow my troubleshooting way down.

Hi Norm,

Could you post a pic of where you found the hard reset switch and what it looks like. We're trying to locate ours in the HWH control box in the electrical bay. Would be a huge help :-)

Cheers Brent

Brent, I would be happy to, but I no longer have the coach.  I traded it in at BCS for an '08 Patriot.
