Section 5: Slideout Systems
Error Codes : When an error code occurs during operation, the board LEDs lights will in-
dicate where the problem is. For motor specific faults the green LED will blink (1) time for
motor #1 and (2) times for motor #2. The red LED will blink 2 to 9 times depending on the
error code. Error codes are as follows:

2 times
Battery capacity is low
enough to drop below 6 volts while running.

3 times
Battery (low) voltage
is below 8 volts at the start of a cycle.

4 times
Battery (high) voltage
is greater than 18 volts.

5 times
Excessive motor current
(high amperage) also indicated by (1) side
of the slide continually stalling.

6 times
Motor short circuit:
motor or wiring to motor has shorted out.

8 times
Hall signal not present
: encoder not providing a signal; usually a
wiring problem.

9 times
Hall power short to ground:
power to encoder has been shorted
to ground; usually a wiring problem.
The board will need to reset after an error code. Energizing the extend / retract switch will
reset the board; energizing it a second time will return it to normal operation
Low Voltage: The in-wall slide controller can operate with as little as 8 volts; however, with
lower voltages the amperage requirement is greater. Check the voltage at the controller and
if it is lower than 11 volts, it is recommended that the battery be placed on a charger until it
is fully charged. It may be possible to “jump” the RV battery temporarily to extend or retract
the room. Consult Customer Service before attempting to “jump” the auxiliary battery.
Only 1 Side Moving : The slide room has a separate motor to operate each side of the room.
If only one side is moving, with another person’s assistance, press the switch to extend or
retract the room while pushing the non-moving side in the appropriate direction. On larger
rooms it may be necessary to have 2 or more people pushing the room.
Non-moving side moved manually : Try to push the non-moving side in and out. If a motor
shaft has broken it will be possible to move that side of the room several inches by hand.
Larger rooms may require several people to push.
Debris in the rack
:
Check all 4 gear racks on the side of the room for debris.
Status LEDs lights
:
Locate the slide controller for the slideout in question. Check the
status LED lights while pressing the slideout direction switch (in both the extend and retract
mode).
Manual override for the in-wall slideout
The slideout system comes with an “electronic” manual override. In event the slide out
does not extend or retract follow these steps to override the system which should allow the
slideout to be retracted.
™
NOTE: Fuses for the slideouts can be found in the load center and may be
designated as auxiliary or slideout motor.
1. Locate the slideout system controllers. There should be one for each slideout on the
recreation vehicle. They are typically located on the forward wall or ceiling of a base-
ment compartment. In some models they may be behind a cargo lined panel.
2.
The malfunctioning controller should have a flashing red LED indicating a halt signal
fault (will flash 8 or 9 times).
3. Press the “mode button” six times quickly, then press a seventh time and hold for ap-
proximately 5 seconds.
4.
The red and green LED’s will flash indicating you are in override mode. Release the
mode button.
