Looks like they just floor mounted the one connector too close to the other(in the open position)causing an extreme bend in the wire cable itself relative to the fixed connection ... leading to your issue. My 3150 or 2980 (can't remember) has a similar connector, but the one end was not screwed to the floor
Exactly! Way too close. The floor mounted connector should have been way back towards the foot of the bed to avoid any contact at all.
It was simple math measurements they didn't accomplish: If there is "X" inches of slide travel, then the 2 connectors need to be at least "X" plus a couple of inches apart. Duh...
