That is a common problem.
Locate the 50 amp auto reset breaker that protects the hydraulic pump and replace it.
They are under $10.

Peace
Dave.

Mine went two years then developed this same issue. I replaced the battery, and it didnt fix anything. On my last heartland fifth wheel, the battery was the issue that caused this intermittent stoppage on retract only. It just didnt have the current capacity after three years.

This time I followed some online advise thru here, and replaced the circuit for the landing gear with a 80amp breaker and wired it direct from the battery to the pump. From the factory my landmark had two 50amp breakers in line for the RV's 12 volt power up front. Weak link could have been either of them. Since this mod, I have no more stoppage issues even when cold, when the fluid gets thicker.
