A level sensor usable in a vehicle leveling and stabilizing apparatus particularly adapted for use with a motor home to level and stabilize the vehicle upon irregular terrain preparatory to camping or such activity. The apparatus includes a plurality of jack stand assemblies, one associated with each vehicle quadrant. Level sensors are connected to the motor vehicle to indicate level or off-level condition from front to rear and from side to side. A control panel within the vehicle carries the power unit controls and level indicators lamps. The level sensor includes a plate like pendulum suspended within a housing and constrained for back and forth pivotal movement in a fixed path. Electrical contacts are disposed on either side of the pendulum for making or breaking an electrical circuit responsive to pivotal movement of a pendulum as occurs when the housing is placed in an off level condition.
