The slide out on our 2001 Georgetown 346S will not go in. No power at switch. Is there a circut breaker? If so, where would it be located? The fuse is good so the breaker is the next thing to check out.

Thanks, Bob

The problem was the fuse panel under the steps. Seems like a bad place to put fuses but thats where most motorhomes have them. Had to replace part of the fuse panel (the top half worked). The tech just added a new panel next to the old one and brought the 12v over to it, a few new fuses and the slide works again. The tech said water must have gotten in the panel and coroded the insides.

I had a 2002 expedition and the livingroom slide wouldn't go out. There was a slide circuirt board for both bedroom and livingroom so i plugged the living slide into tge bedroom slide circuit board and the livingroom slide worked. Bad circuit board.

Do your leveling jacks work?


Yes they do. The trouble shooting guide said the 5 amp fuse at the pump may be bad but with the levelers working, I can't see where that would be an issue.

If you are comfortable with using a voltmeter check the circuit breaker. That is the one on the top left above the two square boxes with the smaller red wire going into each side of it. See if you have 12-13 volts going through it.
Be careful that power can give you a jolt.


I have 13.2 volts on both sides so that does not seem to be the issue.

The hyd pump that runs both the slide and the leveling system runs the leveling system OK, just the slide won't work.

If you have a fuse that should be it. Start tracing back to the battery.
