Slide not working

I have a 2009 31ft Winnebago Chalet (Access). Last night I went to close the slides. Our back one worked fine, but the front one did not. What is strange is there is no lights (green or red) on the switch/panel. Everything else is working (other slide, test switch for levels etc...) I replaced both 40 amp breakers, even though they had not popped. I switched the back and front switch and was able to activate the back slide. This tells me it is not the switch. It seems if it was the motor I would get some flashing code. I have reset the panel/switch. Any advise appreciated. Suppose to be touring Lake Superior starting on Saturday and would rather not have to hand crank the slide.
Thanks

2 more options:

Tom's Mobile RV (google)

and

Dean O'Brien Mobile 218-391-6689

Tom is very good.

Missed connections with Obrien when I was in Duluth last month but he called me right back about a toilet seal issue, I ended up doing it myself. Good luck, LS is the best.

If it was me, I would hot wire the motor at the switch, then at the motor. If that don't work, I would guess the motor is bad.

Unfortunately I can't get it in until the 20th at Bullyan. First time for this issue.

Try Bullyan RV in Duluth, they have a mobile RV service. Is this the first time you've had trouble?
