As Ted said in his post -- your motors were grossly out of sync. Now that you were able to get them in sync, here's some advice to keep them that way:

1 - Never, Ever, Ever -- lower the bunk part way. Always be sure when you operate the bunk make it go full travel and hold the switch for a few seconds after the bunk stops. Do the same thing when raising it. By keeping the switch depressed after the motors stop you ensure the motors stay in sync.

2 - When lowering the bunk, be sure that the seats are laid back because if they aren't the bunk will hit them and not go full travel. That will then increase the odds of the bunk motors going out of syn again.

3 - Do not leave sleeping bags, pillows, mattress pad, etc on the bunk when you raise. Compressing these items between the bunk and the roof will again limit the bunk going full travel when raising it.

4 - Be sure to put the safety pins in on both sides of the bunk when it is raised. The safety pins will keep the bunk from slipping down and again going out of full travel.
