3170ds slide will not come in

Help at least my Sunseeker is parked in my back yard. The slide will go out but when I tried bringing it in nothing. I don't even here the motor. I tried pushing the button six times and holding on the seventh I hear a click and it sounds like it wants to move but it does not. I tried removing the two end connectors but the slide will not move. I also tried to disengage the motor by removing the screw and lifting the top part to disengage the motor. However was not to budge it. Open to any ideas. Thanks in advance. 2013 unit.

Sorry to hear that. Had the same issue this summer. One of the upper motors failed. Replaced through extended warranty. Had a mobile RV repair company replace as I had the issue while parked at my house. I have a 2013 3170 as well. All in all not a huge issue - just had to find a mobile RV repair company.

If it is the bunk slide, there are 2 motors than will need to be disengaged in order to push it in.

What slide manufacturer and model? Lippert has good tech support for theirs and their Schwintek line. Also YouTube videos available.
