Really need some assistance.
Please refer to my above post about the broken cable that will not move in either direction. I decided to really pull on the cable to get it totally out and with some heavy muscle in came out. Here is a Pic of what it looks like:
When this cable broke it really wrapped itself around the lower right corner of the slide as you look at the slide from inside. Looks like the strands exploded around itself this was the reason it would not move.
Anyways as stated in my above mentioned post the slide still will not come in all the way. It stops at the lower right corner after moving in about half way. The left side comes in but if one continues to power it in the whole slide get crooked and out of square.
Access to the motor and all the connections above the slide are available because I have removed all the molding and trim wood pieces.
Right now the slide is fully all the way out. The tension on all the remaining cables are tight. Bringing in the slide very slowly after the half way point seems to want to push the lower right hand corner down. This action may be rubbing or catching the carpet in the bedroom - very hard to tell. Maybe because the slide is out of square or out of balance
Does anyone have any ideas what I should be doing next to try to get this slide back into the MH so that I can get to a repair shop and have the cable replaced and have the whole thing re-aligned.
Should I loosen up the connections on the remaining cables to take the tension off and then try to push the slide inside the opening???? If that is the case what cable should I loosen???? Should I rip the carpet out to see if it will clear?????? I am really at a loss and I really do not fully understand how this thing works. I have looked at all of the BAL Accu-Slide video's on their web several times and even have phone calls out to them but they have not called back to my calls.
Just great customer service.
I am stuck at my house with no Mobile RV service available. I am on my own and getting very frustrated.
Any help would be appreciated.
