Our drive side bedroom slide recently statrting acting up.

The power slide locks deploy to the locked position once the slide is all the way out. When we go to retract the slide, the power slide locks retract.

Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

Thanks for your help!!!

Mine have done the same a few times.....then all was well...what I did was just begin the retract process to suck in the lockarms so the lockarms didnt get in the weather

pstroke,

I have had the same issue on a couple of Newmars. It is the proximity senor that is to close to a piece of metal and causes it to react when out. Move that and it should cure the problem.

Thanks, Daryl

Daryl-

Thanks for the info. I will assume the proximity sensor is located near the slide motor? I will look this weekend. Thanks again.

Drew
