Slide Ain't moving

Got back yesterday and the main slide won't go out. No solenoid clicking. I plan to bypass wire the motor this morning to determine if the motor gave up the ghost. I wonder if there is a fuse somewhere that one of you may encountered. It's on an 02 35' Southwind HWH slide. Had to replace one of the boards a couple of months ago. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. At least I'm at home vice along the road somewhere.
  • Make sure that no safety interlocks are keeping it from operating, like engine running, etc.
    With mine the batteries must be fully charged for the slide motors to operate.
  • May be the relay like Roy B said. Check to see if you have power going into and out of relay.

  • Since it's Sunday, I'd call HWH in Moscow IA on Monday. They always helped me as I too have HWH slides. Please post back to let us know what you found.

    My 5th Wheel setup had two or three Autoreset Solenoid Relays close to the battery bank.

    Guess you have checked the batteries already....
