2003 Monaco Camelot all slides stopped working

[DaisyMaggie]

All 3 slide outs on my 2003 Monaco Camelot stopped working at the same time. My front slides were out so I had to hand crank them in. Is there a circuit breaker anywhere that controls all slides? if so where would it be? Could there be any other problem that anyone knows about?

Is one of your bay doors open under the slide? They have a lockout to prevent damage to the door. I don't know if that would affect all 3 though.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. I finally had to go for professional help and they found a broken wire on the circuit board and some cold solder joints. After 14 years things happen. Anyway replaced the circuit board and everything works great.

Thanks again

DM, where was the circuit board located?

There is a Slide Control Board (mine is in the front electrical bay) that has 4 relays on it. There is a 15 amp fuse in the 12v distribution for it there as well. Check the fuse & Make sure that the ignition interlock relay isn't active. That will prevent the slides from operating. Some of the Monaco's also had switches on the compartment doors that will stop slide operation if they are not closed or if the switch is out of adjustment.

There are also circuit for slides...they are big black things with a swing arm that will pop that that stops the slide

not all mh.s and slides are created equal so to say there are big black things with a swing arm may be true in one case but another system is completely different

There are also circuit for slides...they are big black things with a swing arm that will pop that that stops the slide...or even power to the electric motor which controls hydraulics if your slides are hydraulic...Make sure you are plugged into shore power and try again and see if you hear a click by the hydraulic motor...mine was behind the access door with a soda machine key but it was a rear radiator..it may be near the generator or under the front passenger side with yours.

DaisyMaggie, are all of your slides hydraulic? Electric? or do you have both?

I'm just going to throw this out but our 2008 Monaco Dynasty had four slides, 1 electric slide in the bedroom (bed slide) and all the others were hydraulic.

I had the same symptom as you once. On ours, and again, we had a newer model but don't leave a stone unturned.

We had a control board in the ceiling of the second bay. I had to remove a carpeted panel to locate it. We had a bad intermittent circuit board, probably from all the vibration over time. Anyway, once I pushed the connections in, it worked but I did have it replaced.

Good luck, hope you find it easily,
MM.

Sitting level?
Voltage up to par and should be around 13.2vdc?
Do they work with the engine running and this should supply the voltage required from the alternator if the batteries are down?
Shore power should supply what's required as well, but if there's a big boy relay or like crossover, that's not working and power is coming from the chassis batteries, then it might not have enough power. Try using your aux. start button on the dash, while you're at it.
Don't know of any system with a master DC circuit breaker and should each have a fused controller for each slide, so unlikely that all three would have a complete loss of power. However, on edit, I stand corrected after reading Bill Willard's post and his input, could very well be the cause of your problem.

I hadn't considered that these slides could be hydraulic, if that be the case, so................

A 03 Monaco does not have the multiplex system so it's rocker switches, fuses and relays. OP, you are not getting 12V to the pump motor. Could be the relay at the motor, a bad connection, or a blow fuse on the control circuit. Start by seeing if you have 12V to one side of the motor relay (located at the motor). Next check for 12V to the small wire that turns the relay on when someone tries to move a slide.

Assume you have parking brake on, transmission in neutral and any other pre-slide operation things done and the control panel lights up.

Since all slides have quit I would suspect problems in the pump motor circuit. On my coach there is a 200 amp circuit breaker at the batteries if you have one, check it. If you can get to the pump positive supply wire put a test light on it and have someone try to activate a slide. If you've got power to the pump then pump is bad or has a bad ground. Don't know about your coach but a neighbor's 2006 Itasca Meridian's pump is internally grounded so there is no ground wire to check. On that pump motor you can take it apart and reattach the ground wire if it has disconnected.

If you don't have power to the pump you will need to chase backwards from there. You will have a pump relay and some newer systems have a master relay that passes power to the pump relay.

Also, you can go online to HWH and download a manual for your system.

also as I noted in first post here if there all Hydraulic the main solenoid feed could be dead as said so many variables

Brakes on ??? then under the steps where the pump is located there are fuses...one for the 12V motor that runs the hydraulic pump. While you are there clean all of the connections and fuses as that is a terrible location for electrical connections.
