Troubleshooting the Schwintek
Slideout System
Error codes
During operation, when an error occurs the board will use
the LED’s to indicate where the problem exists.
• For motor specific faults, the GREEN LED will blink once
for motor 1, and
blink twice
for motor 2.
• For error codes, the RED LED will blink between two and
nine (2-9) times to indicate the error code (see below)

Error Code Description
2
Battery drop out; battery capacity low enough to drop below
6 volts while running.
3 Low battery; voltage below 8 volts at start of cycle.
4 High battery; voltage greater than 18 volts.
5
Excessive motor current; high amperage, also indicated by
one (1) side of slide continually stalling.
6 Motor short circuit; motor or wiring to motor has shorted out.
8
Hall signal not present; encoder is not providing a signal,
usually a wiring problem.
9
Hall power short to ground; power to encoder has been
shorted to ground, usually a wiring problem.
When an error code is present, the board needs to be reset.
Energizing the extend/retract switch resets the board. Energize
the extend/retract switch again for normal operation.
Checking Fuses
The Schwintek slide system requires a minimum of 30-amp
fuse. Check the fuse box (located in the command center) for
blown fuses, and replace as necessary. If the fuse blows im-
mediately upon replacement there may be a problem with the
wiring to the control box (contact your dealer for assistance).
