Slide help please
What's up? My 33.2 rear slide goes in and out fine. My main slide is out and silent. No sound at all. Did something trip or blow I should hunt down? Of course I'm stick in a park at checkout time.

try shutting off coach batteries with the battery switch for a minute. this will reset the firefly system. Happened and worked once for me and never has happened again.

No dice. Thanks for suggestion. The controller in the coach bay won't reset and no lights. It seems no power to the controller.

yep, I vote for checking in the battery bay, on the wall, for a MAIN BUS FUSE or similar 'fuse' that may have a little YELLOW flag poking out, meaning tripped, push it back it, if so, and try the slide again... : )
but, that's just a 'easiest scenario' guesstimation!

My controller was corroded. Swapped controllers and bam, the big slide came in. You can see the corrosion. Will snap pic when we stop.

You can see from this pic the corrosion. This is the controller in the big bay. I'm one of the lucky folks who don't get water in my bays...so I'm not sure where this corrosion came from. The controller above the driver is an exact match so I'm using this one good controller swapping back and forth to open/close both slides. Called Thor, and they shipped me out a new controller, very easy to work with on the phone. I may even pick up a spare to avoid this again. Thanks for the suggestions.
