On a trip few weekends ago, I was outside setting things up and wife was inside running the slides out. BR slide moved out and must have got a stuck relay or something. The Intellitec Slide Control Box overheated and partially melted, fortunately was no fire or damage to other components. I thought I smelled a funny burned plastic smell in the BR, but could not figure out the source while we were camping. Upon packing up, the slide would not move in, I had to manually crank it in.
Once home I was able to do some investigation and found this:
and inside the box:
I was able to get a new slide controller, nothing $100 can't fix
I put some new wire ends to replace the burnt ones, connected it up and now the slide works like it is supposed to. I feel fortunate that it was just this and not a more significant problem or fire.
