Electric jacks and slide outs use 12V DC power. Typically they are directly wired to battery due to their high amp draw.
Need a good fully charged battery.
The power wire to each should have an in-line fuse or a DC circuit breaker. All connections need to be clean and tight..especially the ground cable.
X2 on the fully charged battery.
New batteries should be put on a charger to bring them to full charge before they are put into service. I use a trickle charger before I install the batteries then allow the converter to maintain them.
