powersltc Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Ron P. 2004 Monaco Executive My passenger side slide only goes out halfway and stop. I had slide toppers put on and it worked fine. I bought it home from the shop and it worked fine. Preparing to get my carpet cleaned tomorrow by opening all slides. Now slide only opens halfway. Full charged batteries and connected to 110-120v power. Any ideas/suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradHend Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Any other details on this? electric or hydraulic? just stops halfway? Stops abruptly? Loses power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersltc Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 Hello. The slide moves very slowly until half way and then it whines but don't move. It will come back in but whines then start moving. It is hydraulic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradHend Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Sounds like somethings jamming up or binding if that’s the case. Do you notice any uneven movement in the slide out when it stops and the pump starts to whine? I’d say check your oil level, but if it sounds like it’s working hard when it stops I doubt that would be the problem. Is your slide raised and moves on rollers, or flush style that ramps down?

Frank Bergamo Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I am with Brad, check your fluid level. You should check the level with all slides in. Hope this helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacwjames Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Any chance your awning anti billow type lock might be engaging?? PO of my coach disabled them but it cause a problem it the prematurely engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersltc Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 Don't know. I did put awning in and out to see if it made a difference. No changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersltc Posted April 4, 2022 Author Share Posted April 4, 2022 Good morning. Is it a separate hydraulic reservoir just for the RV slide or the one central hydraulic tank located in the engine compartment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan K Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) Your slide hydraulic reservoir would likely be under the entry steps. Totally separate from the chassis hydraulic system in the engine compartment. This is on ours, somewhat visible from the front passenger wheel opening looking forward. Some apparently have an access through the steps so check if you might be lucky and have an access there too.

powersltc Posted April 4, 2022 Author Share Posted April 4, 2022 Ron P. 2004 Monaco Executive Hey Guys. I appreciate your assistance in trying to resolve my slide not fully extending. I took my motorhome for a drive. Pull into a Home Depot parking lot and tried my passenger side slide and it worked fine. My motorhome was parked slightly uphill and I didn't notice until this morning when I went to the store. Coming back and approaching, I noticed the uphill grade. Thanks again for the assistance. I still gotta find that hydraulic reservoir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
