Has anyone with full wall slide model had the lock's at top of slide to break? The back one on our's broke, under warranty, Dealer said part was 125.00 their cost, and these things are made of plastic. We have about 3000 miles on coach, this could get expensive.

If this is the first year for the full wall slide they may have to recall to make a better lock if too many people have trouble.

You might want to write Fleetwood, explain your problem and save the replies for future reference.

I have a 36d but didn't know there were slide locks. The only thing on mine that I have found is the brakes in the motors.

I had the slide slip out a few inches once on a really rough road though!

I was thinking about getting those slide braces from camping world to hold it when traveling.

The problem I am working on now is the low water flow when hooked up to a well system. There is supposed to be a built in pressure regulator but I can't find one. I would like to remove it if there is and use an external reg. when needed.

Hi All:

We have a 2006 Prvidence with the full wall slide.

The locks are metal. So, they must have learned their lesson.

Rany welcome to irv2.
IF you have a water filter in coach water bay remove it and see if flow is better maybe plugged.

If you are having low water pressure, chances are it is the connection in the water bay that your water hose connect too. Most, not all have ONLY 1/4" hole for the water to pass through. If you take out that piece and enlarge the hole or buy another one with a 1/2" hole, your volume flow will be like in your stick house.

Most people don't realize this is where the problem is.
