My TT is a 2018 model. I purchased in 2019 and I've used it about 4 months each the year. Typically travel about 5,000 miles each year.
See attached video:
So, about two weeks ago the Accu-slide "cable adjustment blocks" started crashing into one another when extending and retracting the slides. I found this video about how to adjust the cable system and at 7:10 in this video the instructor says if you don't tighten the "jam nut" on the center chain then the adjustment blocks won't stay "up and down" (which means they will crash into one another).
I have 3 slides with 4 adjustment blocks on each slide. Eleven of my 12 jam nuts had backed off allowing the assemblies to twist and two of the slides had assemblies running into one another. I presume they loosen while bouncing down the road.
It's a pretty easy fix, BUT, you have to take that decorative trim off to gain access to the assemblies.
Maybe this will help someone else having a similar problem.
