Slides won't close

Having some issues. I used 2006 Monoco Lapalma a few weeks ago on a weekend trip, had no issues. It has sat in the driveway a couple weeks waiting for me to finish cleaning it up and park it. I went to start the engine the other day and we had to jump it to get it going. Generator took a few tries and shut itself off after a few minutes (did this twice) but then it ran and I left bot run at least 30 min, opened the slides, vacumed and did all my cleaning. I left the slides open, shut everything down. Two days later the generator won't run again without shutting itself off and the house batteries aren't charged at all. I got gen running and engine but slides seem to have no power at all. I checked the breakers includign the one on the generator. Last fall the generator was not staying running and has it serviced and they said it was low on oil and that was why it shut itself off. DH unscrewed a cap on the gen and said it was full of oil and infact started coming out when he opened the cap. I'm in no way mechanical so I don't know if this is proper way to check. Not sure he is a reliable oil checker either.
Any ideas?

I think you should first learn how to manually retract your slides for instances such as this and have what you need on board. At least you're in your driveway and not in Death Valley.
Try using your aux boost for more battery power and you might also try using some jumper cables from your car. With the coach engine running, you should have at least have plenty of power to the chassis and the aux boost should pick up the house batteries, as said.
Also sounds like the genset is overfilled with oil and should have a dipstick that will show the proper level.
