Slide out dead

I have a 2002 Kountry Star Class A.Today the main Slide out will not extend. The 20 amp. fuse is good.When pressing the button,the green light does not light up.Any help will be appreciated.
  • ronmc, I just went thru a similar problem and my chassis battery was not charging fully. My slides were dead. My chassis battery is now charging 14.5 and the slides are now working. This might not be your problem, but worth checking out!
  • Thanks for tips, I loosened the panel the switch is on and reached in and shorted across the switch.Slide went out.Now if I can find a number for the switch. I'll sit here for several months.
  • Suggest you check all fuses in the coach. My flashers and running lights failed and because they blew two fuses my leveler so wouldn't work. Same fuse does many things
  • You need a complete circuit to light up that light. If you can actually get to the slide out motor wires, take your jumper cables and wires out there and connect to the battery and motor wires. If the slide out moves with just the negative connected, it's the negative wire that failed (most likely), if it moves with the positive connected, it's the positive. If it doesn't move at all, it's the motor.
  • Take the switch out and you should be able to jumper the two (?) wires going to it to see if it's the switch.
