Can anyone tell me where to locate the manual override for the electric slide rooms on a 2003 Montana Fifth Wheel. One room won't come in all of the way. Can anyone help? J

The Lippert electric slide operator has a slip clutch in the motor. Due to it's design, when the motor overloads and the clutch slips, it will make a clicking sound. If this is your symptom, check for binding or obstructions to the slide's free movement.

Some systems have a crank for manually operating a slide, others may have a release lever located in the mechanism and a shaft to turn with a wrench. Make sure your batteries are up good, slides run off of the battery's power and not from the converter.

You can find manuals for your slide at this site
Lippert http://www.lci1.com/service_owners_manuals.html
I think yours are hydraulic and can be operated with an electric drill and a hex drive. But if it is running in and out but not closing all the way, that will not help. Check the troubleshooting page in the manual.
