I wish there was a definitive answer. I have been trying to figure out a balky slide and am in the process of (possibly) replacing the house batteries, a pretty expensive thing. And I am not even sure if it matters.
Please don't take this as a complaint about the comments in this post. Didn't mean that. I'm just trying to figure out the right thing.

Your DS front slide is electric and uses one motor that draws a lot of amps, especially when the slide goes up and over the ramp. When I used that slide I either had the engine running or plugged into 50amps for a few minutes.
If you still have the original batteries, they could be 5 yrs old and may be time to replace them.
