salem slide

I have a 2013 Salem 23 ft the slide won't move. There is power but nothing to the slide motor. Is there another fuse or breaker I don't see? Model T23FB

Post what model you have, it helps searching for the proper response.

Looks like he posted the model number at the end of his post.

Starcraft, did you inspect the fuses in the converter? Next step would be to open the switch on the wall and verify power is reaching the switch, then jump the wires on the back (in or out, depending on which way your slide is stuck) to verify if the problem is in the switch itself. Next, pierce the +12 wire at the motor and verify power is getting to the motor (while someone presses the switch, or jump-wire the back of the switch again). If you are then the motor is probably bad. If you aren't, next move your battery under the chassis and jump directly to the motor's wires to verify the motor is good.
