Mine actually does. I do it all the time in the winter when I am exercising the generator.

In our 2014 RB there are 2 A/C plugs side by side in the A/V cabinet above the fireplace.
One turns off with the slide and the other doesn't.
I found that out when I re-arranged the audio/video equipment and my TV wouldn't come on with the slide in.
I had swapped plugs and didn't realize it.
Wonder if your plugs are swapped also?

I do think that the DW unplugged the fireplace and will confirm that shortly.
As for the slides, I am going to start pulling every 12v fuse and check them even though none are labeled for the slides.

I know the ignition is wired to prevent the slide moving when the key is in. Could something be shorting in that. I imagine it a ground that prevents the slide working. I'm not sure where that would be.

Well I just got finished pulling every single 12 volt fuse I could find in the coach.
I tripped across one that was bad but that was for the dash radio and after replacing it obviously did nothing.
I found the two in the battery compartment they checked okay also.
Last resort now I'm trying the reboot method someone mentioned previously and if that don't work and I guess it's time for a tech

When I first got my coach, on the first night out, we put the slides out, and next morning none of them would go in. Like everyone, I checked all fuses and breakers, but nothing worked, I then just kept pushing the slide buttons on and off, and low and behold, they started to work and all came in. I went directly back to the dealer to have it checked. The repair technician discovered that there was a relay that controls the slides, and it would work intermittently. Sometimes it worked fine, then it wouldn't. He replaced the relay, and all has been fine since. That could be your problem, It is worth checking.

Yes I did find that really it's fairly well marked in the 12 volt fuse compartment next to the driver.
I think I'll replace the relay next.
I found that the hydraulic motor works by using the jacks and it runs fine

Damn Kenny- you really come up with some good ones for us here on the Forums! Hope someone comes up with a solution or something you replace fixes the problem.

My slides work with the key in but not on. I leave the keys in the ignition all the time. I wonder if mine is wrong.

So many differences from year to year. Even many within a model year. I don't think you have a problem. If the slide didn't start to go out a little I would look mare at the ignition. Being that it went out and quit it seems like a fuse.

No boxes in the battery compartment, besides the one big fuse with a plastic cover
Going to order a new relay and try that.

It is a tiny switch on top of our inverter. I couldn't see it but felt it. Our outlets next to the bed didn't work. I have a CPAP machine and we were boondocking and the outlets were dead.

spider,
Don't know what type of camper you have (sounds like you have a class C), but there is no battery box in our coaches that are under steps. This is a Berkshire class A on a Freightliner chassis.
