We have a 2015 Roo 21BD and when opening it up to prepare for our 3 month trip which starts next week the slide is not working. There is no noise and no action. Checked fuses in fuse box inside and all appear intact, Checked batteries and both register full. Everything seems to work on electric and battery inside. Everything worked fine last fall when we winterized it. What are we missing? Is there another fuse box somewhere? or reset button that we don't know about? I am hoping it is something simple, don't we all. Of course local FR dealership is busy and I get that. We do know how to use manual crank to get it out and in but hoping we can resolve this with your help. Thanks
Many Ultralight TT have an inline fuse because the wires go from the slide directly to the battery. Many times there is reset able fuse on that wire on the tong of the TT. Look for a fuse that looks like the below. OK the picture does not want to post but just push the little button on the side and reset the breaker.

PTL and the FR Forum. It was indeed as simple as that. Problem solved. Thanks you guys-you are the best. Now its back to packing and restocking. Just a little hiccup along the way, and a simple and cheap one at that.
I have a Flagstaff MicroLite RV. I have learned that too much weight on the slide-out will often blow the 30 amp inline fuse, whether extending or retracting the slide-out. Minimizing the weight will make the fuse last longer; an electrical engineering friend of mine calls it a design defect because the slightest interference with the slide-out's travel will blow the fuse. I keep a package of 30 amp fuses taped to the slide-out for easy access, and a large body pillow to cushion my body underneath the trailer's tongue while replacing the fuse. Happy camping!
Here is the re-settable circuit breaker we used.
I removed the 30A fuse and holder from under the trailer and installed this one in the the hot wire right next to the slide motor (in our case, under the couch).
No more replacing fuses under the trailer, usually when the ground was wet!!
We had the sMe thing happen withe our ROO 21dk the first time out. Took us hour and phone calls to a dealer then FR. No one knew what it was so we ended up calling a mobile RV repaire service. Once he looked at it all it took was the 30 amp fuse. Live and learn.
Glad it all worked out,,, and hope you have a great trip !!!
May I suggest that next year,,, if you have time check things out a little more in advanced,,, you never know what you might find ???
Everyone needs one of these. Good for the knees also... Attachment 107856
