Problem solved

I done some trouble shooting today on the slide out problem I bought a light tester there was power to everything so I looked for my power unit on the slider which is electric and low and behold there was the problem a loose connection I plugged it back in and the slide works it was directly below the slide outside in the storage box.

That is great news. For future reference, if you have any slide out issues, that box will transmit a code telling you what the problem is. The error codes are printed on the outside of the control box you found.

And for emergency retraction, you can setup the box for manual override:
