Slideout stuck, not moving any further
I am quite experienced with travel trailers, but this one I have just got this summer as a back up trailer to my other one I rent out has been giving me issues.
Trailer is a 2011 shamrock by flagstaff hybrid tent trailer.
The slideout has always struggled a bit going in and out. I always assumed a weak battery caused that. But today while pushing slide out it stopped completely about a quarter of the way. I can hear the motor clicking when I push “in or out” l. I tried replacing battery and no luck. I was also plugged into shore power this whole time as well.
Is the motor fried? I don’t have any tripped breaks or fuses. I also cannot find a manual override for the slide.
I also disconnected battery completely and disconnected from shore power and was shocked I still have 12v power. Where is this power being stored without a battery?
Sorry for long post
