Have a bedroom slide that I need to change electric motor on. System is Swintec. Bedroom slide is all the way in and I need to get it partially out to remove motor. Unplugged motors from controller but slide will not move. How do I get the slide out so I can get to the retainer screw in the motor?Thanks in advanceRig is a 2015 Tesla T3212

There is usually a manual crank position somewhere to crank out the slide. It would help if you would post the make and model of your rig so members could help you out better. Just click "edit" on your post to add that information if you can.Barney

Plug the motors back in find the controller hit the small black button on the controller for a few seconds this overrides the system then you can move it out

You may have a pin you can pull to delink the motor. For all the troubles slides present they just aren't worth it.

Peel away the rubber and lift out the motor from the inside.

Motor will not move without the retainage screw being loosened

This slide does not appear to have that option

Tried this but motor does not engage. Also checked wiring and found no short. Would appear motor is dead

All indications are that there is a retention screw that must be loosened to life motor up. But the slide must be out about 8 inches so that this screw can be loosened from the outside of the rig. I have no idea why this screw could not be made to be accessible from the inside of the rig...common sense to me

Did you read the instruction about pushing the mode button 6 times than pressing and holding it the seventh time until controller goes into override mode? Page 7 Here!
