I had exactly the same issue you are describing. Turned out to be a fouled ground in my case... which only required removing the bolt, cleaning/greasing and then securing the bolt/ground. Now it works every time :YEAH!:
Here is a bit more detail on what I did to track down the issue: Intermittent Slide Issues
Keep in mind I didn't start the thread but commented in it on what I did. I dealt with this issue for multiple years before I put my head down and committed to fixing it.
Excellent, thanks! First chance I get, I'll track down the ground wire. Per your response to that post, my issue seems exactly the same, inconsistent, no 'clicking' when it doesn't work, etc. I'm just trying to think without looking at the trailer where the faulty ground may be, best guess would be near the battery by that junction box where i saw some corrosion. The green & yellow wires you see in my photo go directly to my slide switch in the interior of the trailer with only splices at the motor there in the pic, and behind the switch itself, which I checked as good. Thanks again I'll troubleshoot this soon.
