'02 Tradewinds slide out won't out

We have an '02 Tradewinds, the bedroom slide will come in fine but will not go out. Looking over some older posts, we have tried locating the curcuit board with no luck. Does anyone no where it's located to check the relays? Any guidence would be much appreciated!

On our 2003, it is on the forward wall of the rear curbside compartment just below the main fuse board

On my 2001 Tradewinds it is also in the right rear bay on the forward wall. If you have two slides there will be two boards and these are located directly below all the other fuses. Each of these have a 30 amp fuse that looks just like a regular long glass fuse but are heavier and are called a slow blow fuse. They are a light brown or tan color instead of clear glass. I would check to see if one of these blew before going after the boards. I had one go and found new ones at Radio Shack. Keep us informed.

I know the slide will come in because when I originally started to bring it in from the out position, I decided it was in far enough at the half way point (detailing the area outside) and then switched the button to have it return fully out and it wouldn't go out. Not sure what to do next I continued to have the slide come in all the way. Once it was completely in, I tried again to have it go out and it would not. No noise of wanting to work. But again I switched to the in position (even though it was completely in) and I could hear it working and still trying to come in further. Thank you for the posts on locating the boards. My husband and I will check it after work today. I'll keep you posted.

Slide out won't out - NO MORE!

We have finally been able to figure out what was wrong! Looking in the area mentioned in the reply posts, one of the many contectors had become slightly loose. It was located in the back, against the frame and difficult to see or adjust but we located it. I can't thank Arch and Sgtjoe enough... THANK YOU!
