Problems with Slide Outs on Ford Chassis V10
I have a 2007 Southwind 32VS on a 2006 Ford V10 chassis. Both slide outs and the rear view monitor are not working.

Start the engine, possibly dead batteries. Eddie Elk.

If you are new to this rig , the parking brake has to be on and engine running for slides to work. Rear view monitor something else.

Transmission in park ? Your emergency brake pedal may not be activating the switch behind it. Sometimes it gets out of alignment. On my 08 Bounder , the fuses and relays for the slides were in the forward passenger side bay. They might be your issue.

Parking brake functions ok because the levelers function properly and require the parking brake to be on.

Ford's involvement stopped with delivery of the naked chassis. Contact Fleetwood for how they hooked into the Ford chassis and wired the slide mechanisms and everything else. If the fault isn't in the above mentioned emergency brake switch or ignition switch, you'll need to keep looking.

I had this same issue with mine. Does your 'park' brake light show up on your console? In my case, the brake was on, but the wire to the sensor was loose, so it would work intermittently until eventually the wire came off and it stopped entirely. Reconnected wire, problem solved.
Rear image seemingly not related but would think to start a seperate thread for that
Edit
Didnt read fully before replying. Typically the slide and levellers have a wire connected to the park brake sensor, maybe the one to the slide motor is loose/broken?
Is it a powergear combo system or are they seperate systems?

The parking brake light is lit on the console. Powergear slides and Atwood levelors. I read online where the same problem was listed but it was on a Southwind 32 VS with a Workhorse chassis that has a fused ignition signal circuit for the slides and backup monitor. I have a Ford chassis and don't know if there is a similar circuit. I will check the parking brake sensor wiring. Thank You

Found blown 3 amp Ignition Signal Fuse in Battery Control Box. Replaced fuse which blew immediately. Now I need to find out why the fuse blows.
Thank you all for your previous replies.
