It would help to know what brand and model camper you have. I assume Berkshire, since you posted it in the Berkshire forum, but assumptions have made us all the look like the back of a donkey before. Merry Christmas, and somebody will chime in.

If it's a Berkshire, you can use the handle provided... Look in the rear compartment on drivers side and you can hand pump it open and later close it the same way....

Good luck....

Just in case it may be this simple thing....

This happened to us once. A short broom handle fell, rolled, and perfectly wedge itself between the wall and the back of the slide's trim (rear, electric slide). When we'd press the button, just a click - nothing else. Thought for sure we were in for an evening of headaches and head scratching. Then I looked behind the slide, discovered and pulled the offending piece out and the slide worked perfect. Thank goodness the trim didn't rip off.

Hope it's a simple fix for you.
