Slide stuck in

[Dhagan]

Hi new member here I have a 2016 Conquest 31 ft with 2 slides. The front slide with sofa a kitchen will not retract need to replace one motor which I have. The problem is I can't push it out manually even with motors unhooked maybe not enough manpower.is there a way to get to the retention screw for the motor with the slide in.anyone have this issue help.TIA

(Many/ most?) slide motors have brakes mounted on the end of the motor; these engage w/ no power to keep slide from extending during travel? May also find an emergency procedure in OM to use a drill after releasing brake?

I just replaced motor on 6316, motor #524664, replaced by Lippert #368221, https://store.lci1.com/gear-motor-with-pin-double-shaft-mid-torque-368221.html.

It does have the brake as noted, it can be a pain to disengage. Likely you can remove motor. I believe you need to get your socket in there to crank it out at the motor, "while" someone pushes gently from inside.



Is it possible you have the manual slide lock/bars in place? I made that mistake.
