slide motor amps

I got an Artic Fox with the large slide. The slide is powered by a "PowerGear" motor. Anyone know how may amps that motor draws?
  • As the slides age and if they are not properly lubed the draw current will increase. The mfg specs are determined when things are new and in good shape.
  • Don't know how true it is but my TrMetric says 9.5 amps on extend and max of 12.6 on retract. That's on our 2013 Arctic Fox 27-5L.

  • Have you went to the Arctic Fox site, a lot of good people www.afnash.com/forum.php
  • Read the label on the motor if it has one. Remember that it is a 12v motor.
