help with slides PLEASE

Thanks Chris. Monday we will give it the old 1, 2, try. Which means we will pretend we are going somewhere, turn the chairs, pick up the junk and push the slide button to see if all slides retract. We wil than say a big prayer and hopefully extend them. We will take a short break and cycle them again.

If all goes well we will try and switch our appointment for the axle replacement. Assuming we will not have any more problems we might go to Disneyworld or at least to the MOC luncheon.

Glad you have a handle on things. Just think, you could have been in Northern Illinois and had this happen. Feeling blessed about now?

Mike, if I was in Northern Illinois I wouldn't know about a problem with the slides, bent axle, broken frig, or diesel fuel on my coach. On the other hand it is a chilly 58 at 11:30 and tomorrow we're going to a craft fair while my son is getting cabin fever so bad, at our house, he's going to paint and re caulk the bathroom.

By code, the circuit breaker is within 18" of the battery. from there wiring goes straight to the pump. Now, if power is not getting from the battery to the pump, your issue is wiring between the battery to the pump.
The solenoid has three posts on the top - the center one is constant hot. The switch should be getting it's power directly from this center post as well. - if you have a test light or voltage meter, you can check for power at this location. If it is hot, then the issue may simply be the reversing solenoid is not latching in.


This would be a good 'Sticky'

Glad it is resolved for you Dick.

Thanks Ozz. The final test is tomorrow when we run the slides in and out. I will post the results tomorrow afternoon. Keep your fingers crossed.

Two full cycles and all systems are go. Thursday is the date for the axle install. Maybe than we can enjoy ou winter in Florida. I stopped by the RV service to thank them and settle up. They charged for a service call which I thought was fair as they did come out twice, the second was to bring our slides out. They did say that when they tested the breaker the second time that they showed no power and did show power the first time.
