slideout problem

I retracted the jacks before moving the slideout rooms in. My mistake !!

Three of the four slides came in but the passenger side livingroom/kitchen would not come in. I started to move it in with a 5/8" rachet wrench and then pressed the switch and it came in about 98% under power. It will not draw up tight even with the ratchet wrench. The wrench seems to slip as the gear box might be stripped. Also the power lock arms will not extend and lock the room in place even though the room seems to be in far enough for that to happen. It won't move out under electric power either at this point.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Fuses and circuit breakers have been checked and are O.K.

Does it have air ride? Did you start it and air up the suspension, might take it out of a misalignment.

Does have air ride. Mountain Aire 4032 Drove it from Florida to North Carolina with existing slide problem so air suspension was up and didn't solve the problem

Welcome BobLin to the Newmar forum & irv2.
I would reset jacks and level the coach than try to operate just that one slide.
Make sure everything around slide is clean and no binding.
Have coach shore line plugged in or have engine running, you may hear the alarm, open and close slide a few times it may realign with in the track rails.

There is more info in the Quick Tips Link.
