Slideout and ghosts

[Robert_Allen]

I have a 2011 Itasca 34Y motorhome in a storage building. I had not been to the storage building for 3 months until a few days ago.Everything was O.K. I plugged the electrical in to a 120 volt outlet. I went to the storage building this morning and the full wall slide had gone out on it's own. Looks like the bottom, both front and back went all the way out (or close). The top at the front went out approx. 90 percent. The back top of the slide went out maybe 20 percent. Now the slideout will not move at all. Slideout locks were locked before this happen. Could not find any fuses blown. Also when the slideout went out unlevel it almost pulled off a cabinet door inside. Any ideas what went wrong.

TechWriter Thanks, I will try that tomorrow.

Had that happen on my Newmar a couple of times. Others have reported the same thing.

Seems it's an Intellitec slide controller issue -- if the controller gets the right kind of transient, the slides start operating.

Myself and others just remove the slide out fuse when slides are not operating. Suggest you do the same.

Tripalot Yes it was quite a surprise. The slidelocks are electric. I am about 99 % sure the locks were locked.

Our 31 ft. Class A had a full wall slide with slide locks at the front and back. The slide locks screwed into the slide frame and into the MH frame. I don't think there is anyway possible the slide could move with them engaged. What type of slide lock do you have? Is it electrical and the fuse maybe blown or something similar. That must have been quite a surprise to find it that way.
