Slideout problem

I have Hitchhiker II with a Hydro gear slide out...it goes out fine but doesn't always go all the way in without stopping a couple of times...new batteries, fluid up to full line, slide rails lubed
.....any ideas?

  • First off ......hope you are using a dry lube on them rails such as a spray on graphite and not a grease type lube. That attracts dirt causes gumming up and wear. Rails should be wire brushed clean and if any lube it should be 'dry'
    A little silicone spray on 'ram' then wipe with a clean rag

    Secondly.....
    Find the slideout 30A relay/auto reset fuse and replace with a new one.
    Should be in front compartment close to battery
