TROUBLESHOOTING ELECTRIC SLIDEOUT

If the slideout does not move when the slideout switch is depressed, follow these steps.
1. Check the battery for full charge and good wire connections.
2. Check for loose connections at the slideout motor.
If slideout still will not operate, follow these steps.
1. If the slideout is extended, see the section on overriding the electric slideout system.
2. If the is retracted, leave it in that position. Install the "transit bars".
3. Take the trailer to the nearest dealer or service center.
If the slideout extends crooked, or only one side moves, follow these steps.
1. Follow steps 1 & 2 in the section on overriding the slideout system to disconnect the motor.
2. Retract slideout using the hand crank. You may need to push the side that is not sliding to get
it to retract all the way.
3. Once the slideout is fully retracted, install the "transit bars".

OVERRIDING THE ELECTRIC SLIDEOUT SYSTEM

If the system will not move when the switch is pressed, check the following:
• Is the battery connected and does it have a full charge?
• Are the transit bars removed?
After checking the above, follow these steps to move the slideout manually.
Tools required:
• ScruLox head screwdriver (if trailer has an underbelly)
• 1/2" wrench
• Adjustable wrench or rachet and 3/4" socket.

4. Locate and remove the underbelly access panel for the
slideout motor. Refer to the drawing to locate the
motor on your particular slideout.
5. From the rear of the motor, rotate the brake release
lever on the back side of the motor counter-clockwise
1/8 turn. (Fig. 3-10) This will release the brake that
locks the slideout in place.
6. The slideout is now free to move. If the park trailer has an underbelly, locate the access panel
at the rear of the slideout rail. Remove the access panel for the manual slideout shaft.
7. Use a 3/4" socket and rachet on the hex head located on the end of the drive shaft and turn
the shaft until the slideout is in the position you desire. When the slideout is fully extended
(or retracted), put pressure on the wrench to ensure a tight seal then return the brake release
lever to its normal downward position. This will ensure that the slideout is locked into a
sealed position.
8. Install the transit bars and take the trailer to a Jayco dealer for service.
