Paneling catching on slide

I have a 1999 Harney Renegade DP. Slide in family room with kitchen on it. The paneling on the wall adjacent to the slide appears to have come loose, and the slide caught it, bending it, and making it far more likely to catch on the slide now. We had to more or less force the slide in yesterday, as we could not reach far enough in the gap to push the panel back so it wouldn't catch on it.

My question is, how to I attack this one? With the slide all the way out, you still cannot reach far enough in to make any sort of repair because the kitchen wall is there on the slide.

Any suggestions?

When the trim around the edges of our slide started binding and pulling loose I used a saw to cut the bottoms off.
I then discovered that the cause of the issue was that the rollers under the slide were wearing out which caused the slide to drop shift and bind.
Trimming the wood wasn’t necessary , replacing the rollers solved the problem and reattaching the loose trim required double sided carpet tape to hold it in place.


I will double check that as well.

Any access with the slide partially open?


Good idea and I will check. The overlap seems so great that I may not be able to get to it. But if I get it open enough that I can sneak a look from the outside I will. I bet they weren't generous with the opening though.
