Front Slide Problems

[jdya]

this is for a 2008 Holiday Rambler Scepter
the front slides will go out smoothly but when you want to bring them back you hit the switch you hear the pump start the slide starts to move and then reverses and stops this happens to both front slides.
if you keep hitting the switch and releasing it you can get the slide in but this cant be good for the contacts.
The pump sounds like its around the fuel tank area
I'm new to this in my first year anyone have this happen to them???
thank you for your time

Don't know if this will help you but I had a similar problem on my class C. Turned out problem was two fold. 1st, one corner of the steel frame (the part behind the molding) was separated at the corner & 1 tip was hanging just a little on the frame. I fixed that by riveting a backing plate behind the corner.

2nd, the inverter & converter were damaged by a thunderstorm while plugged into shore power. The batteries were carrying too much of the current w/ little help from the convertor. It would go out fine but would start-stop when coming in. I could get it in by pushing & releasing the button. After the convertor & inverter it now works as it should.
