Slide Out help needed on Grand Junction
Hello all.
My wife and I just purchased a 2007 Grand Junction 34TRG with three slides, but only two of them are functioning. Both the bedroom and living room slides work like a champ, but the large kitchen slide doesn’t want to cooperate.
When I press the extend button, I hear a clunk..clunk..clunk sound, and can feel an accompanying vibration in the floor. If I press the retract button, it makes a deeper CLUNK…CLUNK…ClUNK sound with a similar vibration on the floor.
The previous owner stated that he had this slide motor replaced about a year ago, and hasn't had any problems with it since.
I crawled under the camper and found an access panel that had been cut in the underbelly. Removing this panel, I can see the motor for the slide. The motor has a sticker on it with the previous owner’s name, so that tells me the motor was in fact replaced.
I had my wife press the extend button while I connected a volt-meter to the motor, and confirmed that the motor is getting 12V.
We also had two people inside the camper try to push out the slideout while the “extend” button was pushed thinking that it may just be hung up, but it didn’t budge.
This is our first camper, so any and all input is welcome!
Thanks!
Also, does anyone know how to manually get this slide out?
