However, the motor is located halfway between the two access openings. The only way to access it is to remove the facia board between the openings. To do that, you have to first remove the bedroom door and track. You gotta love these engineers. I'm hoping to get it retracted so that I can make the trip and then to the dealer. Gonna be quite inconvenient, but hey, I just survived a hurricane.[emoji41]
Sprockets? Bike chain? You don't have the Schwintek system with 2 motors and tracks on each side of the slide-out?
