Picked it up in Buffalo, NY 2 days ago from a private seller and drove down to VA. Upon pick up the awning and the slide out did not work. Seller said it's probably due to being iced.

Back in VA and temperatures in the 60's today, the awning is working just fine. The slide out starts mowing just a little bit and then stops. I don't want to try it too many times as I am afraid, I could damage the motor.

Does anybody have an idea, what the problem could be ? Thank you so much
I have 2015 Thor 31W with a full wall slide. It started binding in the 2 nd year. It would start out and then the rear motor would slow down and stop. If I braced myself against the bathroom wall and pushed while my wife was on the switch, it would keep going and extend. To get it back in I would have to push on the outside while my wife was on the switch. The last time it required 2 men and a woman to get it back in. NOW he is at Camping World- they are replacing the track system to the tune of $4500. Make sure that you buy a Warranty / Service Agreement as this is an expensive fix.
