LXI slide not extending

RE: LXI slide not extending
Peter,

The HWH slide controls are a complicated mess and extending and retracting the slide on a LXi is a PIA. The slide controls are integrated with the HWH leveling jacks. The operational procedure posted on the slide control door must be followed exactly to the letter. Further, you should use the HWH leveling controls on the driver's left side arm to re-level the coach just before each time you go to retract or extend the slide(s). Also, the engine should be running and on hi-idle when you do this.

So, try this > Start engine, set on hi-idle, level coach (jacks) at HWH pad (LED should show that jacks have leveled the coach) and then go to slide control panel and exactly follow the procedure. If that doesn't work, let us know and we can try to trace the problem further.

BTW, these slides are notorious for not locking up on retract. This is especially true if the coach wasn't leveled properly before retracting. Many times I could not get the pins to lock in and just gave up and drove the coach that way. The slide's hydraulic system will hold the slide closed as the slide cylinders rod end exhaust port is blocked
