Slide Outs Issue

[Sunny]

Hey, I have a 2008 Endura Gulfstreem 6341, International cab. I just bought this unit and I was wondering why I cannot get the slide outs to work when the motor is turned off. I had the batteries check and they are fine. I plugged it in with 110V and it still will not slide out, the parking brake is on and the seat is moved all the way forward. I start my generator still can't slide them out. No noise or nothing indicating any issues, just doesn't work unless... the rig is running?? has anyone experienced this before

I have a 2010 Supernova 6400 and the slide control unit (located in one of the right side storage compartments) requires 12 volts from the ignition to allow the slide to activate. I ended up putting a small AC to 12 VDC converter in the compartment that is powered from one of the AC outlets in the compartment. I wired the 12 volt output from the converter to the slide control unit so if the ignition switch is on or the RV has 120 VAC (shore power or generator) it will allow the slide to work. This makes it very nice when you want to move the slides in/out, but you don't want to climb into the cab and or start the engine.

Old thread... also noticed if the batteries are not 100% full charge the Big Slide will not operate...either run engine to charge or turn Generator on to get full 12V to Battery. These Powergear slides have been a learning curve...
