On the side of the slide it has a scissor type mechanism. I would appreciate any help, thanks guys. !! Willyt

Ok…got it going !! No visible means to manually move this thing ! I suspected a sheared pin so I removed the three sided carpeted box covering the motor( in the shoe compartment) three screws on lower center of each side and one coming in from the wall side, you have to remove floor from the opposite closet to get to it but you have to remove floor anyway… I know…what a pain !! Now you can get to the four bolts holding motor on. Took the motor out, there was a chain driven gear connected to the single main shaft that moves this room !
The gear was spinning freely, sure enough, a sheared pin !! I confirmed that if I could get the room out I could fix it from underneath. My son was helping me brainstorm, we took a shot in the dark…the collar had one allen set screw(1/4”x20)… we tightened it down…low and behold it held and the room moved out. Took care of the rest from underneath…new shear pin and new set screw. Back in business…
God is good !!!
