Where is Slideout Electrical Controller?

My bedroom slide is out and won't retract. I push the button and all I get is clicking. The other slide on the rig works fine. I have the owners manual and the detailed slideout system operations manual but nether one of them tells me where the Electrical Controller is so that I can manually get the slide back in.

    What kind of slide out is it.. Choices

    Cable car such as Accu-Slide (I can tell you how to manually override)
    Rack and Pinion (Power gear among others)
    Hydraulic
    Swintek (kind of a wavey line)
  • I finally found it. Didn't solve my problem because there was no way to manually bring the slide back in. I got lucky when messing with all the wires, etc, I put everything back the way it was and the switch worked with a little coaxing. I'm glad it was in my driveway and not on the road. I still don't know how to get either one of the slides in manually! It's impossible to get to the motors and the manual override bars!
  • We had to spend an hour looking for ours. Finally found it behind a screwed-into-place panel next to the heater.
