I welcome any advice.

Yes, the holes are for the opposite side.

They evidently did away with the Schwinteck on the kitchen slide in 2015. Pics of 2014s I've seen have it, but not after that year. Honestly, I think I prefer it. My 2104S had one on the dinette slide. The flush floor slides seem to move faster.

My slide is all the way in so this is going to be interesting to remove the motor myself being that I have to manually push the slide out 8 to 12 inches.
Does anyone know if you can simply unplug the power, shore and battery, to release the brakes? I cannot reach in there to hit the button however many times it takes.
Which motor? the one in the kitchen is a pain. The one at the couch is not as bad. We traded our 2703 after year of Schwintek problems.

Thanks, now this makes more sense. We have only 1 schwintek with the 2016 on the wardrobe. The O P has a schwintek on the kitchen slide as well.

It was the rear motor. The one by the kitchen would have been more difficult but possible. You would of had to push the slide out farther for sure.
