2012 Prime Time Tracer 230FBS slide issues

[patinlouisiana]

My slide does not go out. Makes no sound so I assume it is an electrical issue. All the fuses & breakers are ok.
Does anyone know if there is a separate "reset" somewhere for the slide control?

Thanks pyro I'll give that a try.

One of my slide always gets stuck in the closed position. I have to go underneath the trailer and their is a access panel near the motor. Open it up and you will see the motor and then on 1 side should be a hex blot that you can ratchet open. Its the manual override that you can find literature on lipperts website. I have to do 3-4 cranks and then the motor is able to take over.

I disconnected the "Shore power" and the battery had plenty of juice to run the tongue jack but I do not know what amperage that takes. The fact that I do not hear any relay clicks or anything when I hit the slide switch make me think perhaps a bad switch but then how likely is that?
Guess I'll drag it to the dealer.

Thanks!

However all the light & A/C are working.

The AC runs off shore power 120, as will the lights, even though 12v, draws very little power. Normally shore power/converter power, is not enough for a high draw, such as slide operation, but also requires a mostly charged battery.

Depending on the slide, yes there very well may be a reset. In order to know for sure, you'll have to find the "Controller", if you have one. Mine is a black box, underneath the refrigerator, in a panel that you have to remove. The panel is not normally removable but is only held on with a few small staples. The only way I found the controller was taking off the removable panel next to it (for the water heater bypass) and sticking my head in there with a flashlight. Until you find that controller you won't know what to fix. If you knew the make, model, and type of the slide it was be easier to figure out how to help you.

Is your battery fully charged? There is a in-line circuit breaker, not far from the battery, that should reset, but may be faulty.
