Slide out

I have 2016 hemisphere trailer and the slide motor keeps stopping when opening/closing. I have to wait about a minute and try again. It then will extend or retract. The dealer repaired?it last year, but it is still the same. Any ideas?

Sounds like a resettable fuse. Check your battery charge status as low battery causes all kinds of problems with fuses.
If that is good, talk to your technician about the resettable fuse to see if it is large enough, or needs replacing. That is of course after confirming the slide motor is drawing an acceptable amount.

Let us know how it turns out so we can all learn something. Also, I should have clarified that while it is a resettable fuse, I believe yours is an auto reset fuse, which explains having to wait a bit for function to continue. I have replaced all of mine over the years, they do grow weaker with use it seems.

Good luck and happy camping!!
