2001 Itasca Horizon 36ft

The step slide cover will not retract with the switch or the manual air overide, it will extend with manual air overide,
but will not extend with the electric rocker switch.
Anyone know where the componets are located or what the
fix may be.

In my 2002 Itasca Horizon the components are in the front compartment above the generator. Look for a pneumatic actuator with relays on both ends. Mine is Blue.

I thought for a long time that it was one of the relays that had went out and they could not just replace the relay they wanted to replace the entire pneumatic unit for a cost of around $500.00.

After finally messing with it I discovered the pneumatic unit was pretty foolproof. The problem was the switch. I replaced the switch and all works fine. PS. used a double throw momentary switch I found at Radio Shack. Total cost under $5.00.

As with every problem look for the easy fix first.

Thanks for your help, I had replaced the switch and it didn't help (found out I had the wrong switch) Yesterday I purchased the correct switch, problem solved Thanks so much for your help.
