Obviously all the hydraulics (slides and jacks) are controlled by the "brain" along with awning and scare lights.
Of course. I never progressed out of the dark ages when there was only one switch for all slides and no “brain”.

I have a 2017 and my bedroom is Schwentke and Living is Hydraulic. In the nose of the trailer where the batteries are there is a controller. Unplug all the cables going into the controller and then plug them back in. I've done that to fix weirdness with my levelers, and I believe the Living room is controlled by the same, although I'm not 100%, I've only seen one other controller and it's in the pass through, that's for the bedroom though.

I was able to get some photo of my 2014 3100RL actual slide setup. Still not able to get the slide to work. The two in line fuses near the tank are good and the two reset-able fuses near the bottom have been reset and are good.

Black or Red

In the first photo is the red or black tubes the ones that move the slide?

Since the hydraulic jacks work, the pump motor (and jacks manifold) is working.
Does the pump run when you hit the slide extend switch? If not then I would begin looking at the switch (voltage to the switch, voltage out of the switch, voltage getting to the pump motor).
If the pump runs but the slides don’t move, I would look at voltage getting to the slide manifold.
(Just a guess but I would think the manifold with black hoses and single solenoid is for the slides. Someone else should be able to confirm.)

Start at the beginning, did you confirm power that the switch?
