Slide out motor

[mikeae123@att.net]

If our side out needs a motor, Good luck. 2018 Palazzo. Take to a dealer, about 2000.00 for repair. If you want to try it for yourself. First it will take about 2 hours to get it out, another 4 hours to put the new one in. There is no easy way. Then when your done you find out it's not the motor. Arms are sore, back is sore, legs are sore, and it's not fixed. AND you learned some new words
PS I now have an spare motor, $300.00

Ouch on you expensive diy lesson.

I was lucky 5 decades ago (thanks to DW aka "sweet ums") I learned to take a breath, study the situation for a few, then start testing

DW met me at the door purse in hand, just like her mother I'm sure. Said "the dryer broke let's go ."
Something inspired me to say "hold on a sec, let's take a look"
After a couple of minutes I found the drive belt had broken on our new to us dryer.
Next day a trip to Sears (no Home Depot, Amazon in 1969 ) for a new belt saved us some big $$'s we didn't have.

Fast forward 50yrs, a little testing discovered that the driver end of 1 of slides wasn't moving, a little looking (very lucky it wasn't the other end of the other slide ) I found the cable to the motor was damaged . A little solder and heat shrink fixed it

Now we have access to the best trouble clearing procedure EVER!!!
Step 1. Has this ever happened to anyone else... yes = internet, no = ouch

I'm going to guess it was your cable or controller that broke

note: some early responses are a little ruff on this forum, hope this isn't mistaken for one of those
