I have a slide creep problem that only occurs in cold weather when I have the rig in storage and no power of any kind to the rig. I have spent over $4,000 throwing parts at it (hydraulic rams and hydraulic pump) and 3 different RV techs labor. Camping World in Fountain Colorado couldn't fix it but did remember to charge me. I've tried "bumping" the slide switch and swinging a rubber chicken over my head during a full moon. All to no avail.
I finally decided to stop throwing money at it. I bought slide locks and I install them when I put it away in storage for the winter. I put blue painters tape over the slide switch with a big day glow orange streamer attached so I will remember to remove the slide locks (it would be a bad day if I forgot to do this). I also installed a battery isolator switch.
Good luck resolving your issue. If you do get it resolved, please post your fix.
