Every 2012 that we saw at the shows in Jan/Feb had a remote.  Even the 30RE.

On another note, I can't lower the rear jack on my trailer, it's not the remote that isn't working, it appears to be a bad switch (manual switch under the trailer) and wiring, most likey from road salt during transport that was subsequently not cleaned off at the dealer and it just corroded (at least that is what CrossRoads is telling me from the pictures I sent them).  I'm not going to have a chance to take the trailer to the dealer to have that fixed before I use my trailer for the first time and want to learn out to use the hand crank to lower the jack.  CrossRoads told me that I should be able to disconnect the power wire where it connects to the rear jack motor but just as Chez Hed campers mentions, it doesn't look like there is a disconnect by the motor at all.  I too looked at the Lipert manual for the jack and read how it mentions disconnecting the batteries... has anyone tried this and found that was all it took to then be able to use the hand crank?



Was told today that my 31BH sensor is below the fridge.  That will make it much easier to put those jacks up and down while drinking a cool beverage while laying on the floor trying to connect with that sensor all the while not being able to see my awning or jacks go out or down. LOL!

My 30 RE is a 2012. I don't have a remote that I know of, called my dealer they said remote is only on the 2013 models. I think some of your 30 RE are 2012 models, and have the remotes.. 

Is my dealer just blowin me off or don't know what they are talkin about ??

I have a 2012 ST29RL Sunset Trail Reserve and it DOES have a remote with it. So for the dealer to say that it only comes with the 2013 models sounds incorrect.

I called crossroads last week, they say the remote was added in June, mine was built in April. Dead
So I don't have one.

About the stabilizer jack, there is no disconnect point that I could find.  My first trip in our new 26BH the rear motor would not operate.  Spent 3 hours laying in the dirt trying to fix it and/or operate it manually.  The motor itself was bad.  Had to remove the motor in order to operate the stabilizer manually. Bad info in the Lippert manual.

The dealer just replaced the motor last monday.  Seems to work fine now.

Did everyone find the pannel to sync the remote with?
And if you found the pannel, did you find the button???
Took me awhile to find that little sucker!

Hello, just ran across this forum looking for some other information about our 2012 sunset trail 30re.  We had no idea they even came with a remote until I read this forum.  I contacted our dealer and they gave us the same spin some you recd.  We called Crossroads and they immediately sent the remote FEd Ex and said the panel should be below the stove.  However, like some of you we only get a BLUE flashing light and apparently I'm not smart enough to help it "learn".  The lights on the remote come on but they don't control anything.  Has anyone who had a problem locating the control panel found it yet?  I'd like to see it in my unit.
