2003 TS Select 45. All four slides have no power to the push buttons. I feel there is a relay that drops out when the ignition switch is turned off thereby turning on the slide power. The Slide out fuse is good in the compartment under the driver. Is there another fuse? Where is the relay? I cannot find a relay labeled slides or road relay.
What have others done when the slides will not work? I have owned this coach for ten years, and am very familiar with most systems, but this one I have spent several hours trying to chase down the problem and am thinking about jumping power to the switches at the controllers.
Can anyone offer a cure for this problem?
Thank you,
PS. I have been lurking for ten years, this is my first post. I have searched through IRV2 forums several times for this issue.

Fascinating! Like your idea of a relay re the ignition, but have no clue about one.

My 06 Select with 4 slides has a 12 volt fuse panel upstairs in the back beside two 110v circuit breaker panels. The 12v has about 20 house circuits, including the front curbside slide and the rear curbside slide...but not either of the roadside slides!

In the fuse compartment under the driver, one of the 3 add-on panels has fuses for each of the 4 slides.

One of those panels is labeled Ignition, and it has a fuse for SO Kill. That could be your problem.

I have a 2006 45TSS and there is a fuse in the compartment below the driver that is labeled "slide disable " or something like that. Puling that fuse allows the slides to work anytime disabling the ignition lock.

Good luck -

Just went to the coach and looked the fuse is labeled "slide kill"

Pull that fuse labeled slide out and see what happens

I will give you guys an update this evening. Luckily, my slides are in, this could be a major problem if stuck out at a campground.

This may seem redundant, but the power for the push buttons for the slides come from the controllers. The fuses are located in two places. One set of four is in the bedroom panel which were all good. The second set is located in the bay with the controllers way back on the left wall next to the booster solenoid. All four were blown. I had my coach in a shop for some body repair and during that time the batteries may have become low on voltage and perhaps they tried to operate them with the low voltage which I think would have increased the current enough to blow the fuses. Who knows.
Thanks for the ideas and input.

We recently had a problem with the electric slideouts. Ended up turning on the GEN, run a 5-7 min before you try the slideout buttons again. We figured out the park amperage was insufficient at that moment, but GEN took care of it. Who would think 50-amp svc was unreliable. .no issue until we were getting ready to leave!

I had an issue with both my drivers side living room and bedroom slides not wanting to come in. It turns out that by pulling out the 5 amp fuse (Which wasn’t blown) in the fuse compartment just in front of the drivers side wheel and reinserting it fixed the problem for the short term. It happened again the next time we went to an RV Resort and I couldn’t get the slides to open. I took the fuse out again and happen to notice that there was a slight film built up on the contacts of the fuse so I simply cleaned them for better contact and haven’t had this issue since.
