jacks stop and start when retracting

[Ford truck guy]

I know I read this issue somewhere but cannot find it...

When retracting my jacks, they stop and start.. they do go all the way and complete the cycle but not before stopping a few times..

My slides WERE doing it as well, but I checked the fluid and I was 1 quart low so I added it, since then the slides have been fine.

In the past models there was a 50amp breaker to the hydraulic pump with Lippert suggesting replacement to an 80amp. I would've thought by now they would've been doing this at the factory.
But if you think about it almost 10 years of RWs & still reports of drains coming apart under the beds & shower tracks not caulked.
Although if we were buying another rv it would still be a Redwood!!

I would also make sure all the 12V connections in the battery compartment are tight and secure. Also the wiring connections to the big hydraulic solenoid......should be near the fluid reservoir.
