Default Re: Another Slideout Issue

We're having problem with large front slide(it's electric motor driven not hydraulic). First issue about a year ago wouldn't come in--fortunately parked in our driveway. I checked connections, breakers, seat switch, etc and could find no problem then tried slide again and it worked then and for the next year. Now it always (so far) goes out after being driven down the road and will usually come in if not much time elapses(a few hours). However, if you camp for a few days no dice! First time a couple weeks ago I cranked it in by hand with cresent wrench-not a lot of fun! Second time I bought an 18" piece of 1 1/4 inch galvanized pipe to add to the wrench handle for leverage. That works fairly easy--about 5 minutes to crank in.

I ordered a new slide control relay for under the bed. Installed today-no luck, jumpered out the seat switch, still no luck! Seems like one problem after another this summer!!

I'd appreciate any thoughts or suggestions any one has.

John
