If you jumped wires and it works,just make it a permanent connection.Be cheaper than taking it to dealer.

With the switch out, I "jumped" it with a 12v battery, positive on black, negitive on white in the direction I want the bed to go.
I was just hoping some else had the problem and could lead me to a simple fix.

Thanks On my WW there are a couple of places to look for fuses. One is in the shore power cord storage area, next is at the front of the trailer where the generator is. Mine is a 5'er thought. Next I would do is make sure all the wires are connected to the batteries, I removed my batteries once to do some cleaning and I missed reconnecting one lead for the refer. It took me about 1/2 the day to find it.
Hope this helps!

Were you able to find and check any in-line fuses. Start at the batts and trace back the wires. Not sure if in fact it has a in line fuse buy may be worth checking first before going to the dealer. Were you able to get a hold of Happy Jack for assistance.

I called Warrior Lifestyles and talked to Jim in service (very nice and answered all my questions) but I had already tried everything. He also said WW did NOT use the Happy Jack beds, they made their own.
I did look for a lose wire, checked ALL the fuses & connections. I'm going to run a wire from the battery to the power wire on the switch, if that works, I'll just run a wire under the trailer and up the wall. And be done with it...

Sorry I missed the separate battery to make it work.Do you by chance have a vent fan near by the motor.Might be easier to tap off that power supply.

I had the same problem. I had to pull the pins that hold the beds while they were still in the up position and somehow get them off of the rails one at a time. The butt splice at the motor to the wires that come from the switch were loose. I cut the connectors and replaced them. It works fine now.

For whatever it is worth, I called the boys at Warrior Lifestyles and they offerred to fix it if I get it there. I am still working through the suggestions posted here on line but it is good to know that I have a backup plan should I am not able to get the beds working again. JT

I just found out what was wrong with mine. 2007 WW 2800fsw, my bunk would (intermitantly) not come down in the back of mine either. I checked everything......battries, switch, wiring, etc. It was a dead cell in one of my batteries. On mine the (2) batteries appear to be tied together under the bed storage area. Well apparently as different items were on, using power, the bed would not work. Then as those items were not on at a different time (less load on the battery) the bed would work. I dont know maybe you guys are having the same problem.

Well I got our beds to work 
It seems our "Boy Genius" I bought the trailer from, Just added a new battery and hooked the Positive "Black" wire for the beds to the Negative Battery terminal 
So all is well here, I hope you get yours fixed coachjt, and thanks for letting me use your thread !!
Thanks to all
John
