Slideout SLOW and Laboring

[ktsmithlc15]

We bought a 2013 Rockwood Roo 23ss last year. We used it probably 6 times and never had an issue with the slide out. This year after bringing it back from storage I went to open the slide out and it was moving very slowly and seemed to be laboring. I had to manually crank out the slide out because it wouldn't go out the whole way. Has anyone had this problem???

Have you checked your battery? Even though it is only two years old it may be shot. Our dealer put a three year old battery in ours when we picked it up and it lasted 4 months. Even if your were you hooked up to shore power or plugged in to the tow vehicle with it running to charge the battery, if the battery is no good it will drop fast. Check the voltage off of external power while moving the slide and see if it drops significantly.
