One of the reasons I suspect the batteries is on our last trip, when I turned on the inverter, instead of showing the voltage it showed three zeros. I turned it on and off and still 000. I started the generator and then turned on the inverter and it showed a little over 13 volts. I spoke with a local RV tech and he said it sounded like a battery issue. When the slide starts moving out the motors sound normal and it extends fine. But after a few seconds I hear both motors start to slow down and it seems to struggle. Doesn't do it every time but only the last two trips.
Have the batteries checked , or put it on a charger, see if it will charge to 100%. As mentioned friend had the same issues, bad battery. Just the fact the motors slow down tells you its the batteries.
You have had some good advice, I would at least charge the batteries up, if you think its a battery problem.
