    2005 Georgetown Slide Outs Stopped Functioning

    I have a recently acquired 2005 Georgetown Xl that was working perfectly until my 4 year old unplugged the inverter and drained the house batteries dry (my fault for not noticing for two days). Batteries checked out OK afterwards and are indicating full charge but my slide outs and steps are not...

    Slide out Kitchen Faucet on HW27KS

    I have the slide out kitchen (which I love) on my HW27KS. However, the faucet is really low in the sink & makes filling pots/kettle difficult. I'm hoping to change it out & was looking at the one in the link below. Has anyone changed out theirs or can recommend a faucet that would work? It's...

    Geo Pro G19fbs Slide Out

    Recently experienced a malfunctioning slide out. Have made a service appointment, but wanted to get some feedback from all the great folks on here. The main thing I'm curious about (first timer owner here) is whether this model has the ability to manually "override" and operate the slide out...

    Slide out?

    Just received my new DX3. Slides will only work with engine running and parking brake applied. Is this normal? I assumed they would work with shore and generator power as well. I’m thinking something isn’t wired properly.

    3051s Slide out.

    As a previous trailer owner and now a class C owner you would assume I had learned my lesson. Here goes nothing. Is there any service I should be performing on my slide out? My rig is a 2017 forester 3051s and I have done nothing to the slide in the last four years since I bought it. I had an...

    Slide out motor problem brewing?

    I have a 2020 2606WS. The last few times we have tried to move the big slide out, the motor didn't respond. It finally worked after toggling the switch between extend/retract a few times. Is this hesitation the sign of a motor problem developing? I've regularly maintained the track and seals...

Do you think any issue with adjusting the forward-backward leveling with the camper slide out, i.e. camper wheels leveled and locked, just adjustining from front to back? If so, does it matter on what type of slide, i.e. swintek...
