Slide power source
Do the slides run directly off the house battery, when hooked to shore power?

I believe many of the Winnebago / Itasca motor driven slides were wired to run from the engine battery not the house battery. The reason Winne recommends running the engine where the alternator came help with moving the slides.
Are you positive? Some think since the engine or key must be ON and the parking brake set, then the chassis supplies power to the slide motor. But, MOST OEM's wire the actual slide motor system to the coach, but have a relay that requires the Chassis system to be engaged to operate the slide room. Doug
