Also, freezing rain and snow can prevent the
slideout awning-cover (if equipped) from closing
and may cause damage to the awning-cover,
slideout room, weather seals and mechanisms.
To avoid potential damage, we recommend
retracting your slideout room(s) during extreme
weather conditions.
SLIDEOUT ROOM
TROUBLESHOOTING
If Slideout Room Will Not Operate
•
The chassis battery may be low on charge. The
engine should be running while extending or
retracting slideout rooms so the engine
alternator can provide maximum power to
properly operate the slideout mechanisms.
If battery charge is sufficient, go to next step.
•
One of the fuses may be blown in the
hydraulic system control box on the pump
beneath the right front of the coach.
See the Leveling System/Room Extension
Operator’s Manual in your InfoCase for
control box fuse information.
If no fuses are blown, go to the next step.
•
If the batteries and fuses are okay, there may
be a failure in the hydraulic control system or
electrical system which requires service.
Retract the room using the following
emergency retract procedures and contact
your dealer for service.
