Re: 1999 Snowriver Slideout
Throwing this out there if anyone searches this forum for something similar. Saw a tech today and have an appointment with another in a month. At this point, the only way to access the gears that engages the slideout teeth is to remove the slide. I will update if the appointment next month changes that. For now, we were able to get the slideout moving again but the gear does not fully engage the teeth at times.437Views0likes1CommentRe: 1999 Snowriver Slideout
Hard to tell the inner workings. All that is visible to me are two strips of teeth, the power drive head (barker) and a single drive shaft from the motor to the underbelly. I suppose I can remove the carpet from the step up to the dinette and check for a trap door, but since the slide out is stuck in the in position, I can barely reach that area.462Views0likes1Comment1999 Snowriver Slideout
Have a 1999 Snowriver. The back of the slide out is no longer engaging while the front is doing fine. This happened suddenly after a trip last night. I am having a difficult time finding a mechanic that knows anything about Snowrivers. There is limited information online. The one item I cannot figure out is where to access the gears. The owner/builder, Bob, on an old post in 2005 mentioned the carpet under the dinnette, but that was for a travel trailer and newer model. The carpet under my dinette would only lead to the bottom of the slideout and not the area of the gears. Any help would be appreciated.483Views0likes6Comments
