2016 Georgetown 364 Slide out motor overide?

I have tried and tried but am unable to locate how/where to connect into the slide electric motors to retract the should the electric motor fail. It sounds like the motors are center and above slides, but how do I access the port for the hex driver bit?
Help

You have to remove the fascia board at the top, at least this is my understanding. There are plastic caps over the screws held in place with silicone. Remove the screws and the trim board and the motor should be visible at this point.

Iggy I think you are showing the hydraulic central slide system motor. He's asking about a motor drive system probably cable or Schwintek, both also furnished by Lippert. Op really needs to call FR service people to get system ID.

The OP's slide is the cable system drive. The fascia has to be removed to get to the motor

once you find it you will need the long flexible socket/power drill extension that should have been included with the coach to reach and turn the cable motor drive shaft.

Assuming you have the accuslide cable system as I do on my 2015...here's a video that shows you where the motor is and how everything works up top...You must first remove the stapled on fancy wood valance up top to have access to this. The video is 21 minutes long and covers a number of different adjustments but you can see the motor system position where you will nee to place the socket drive extender in the first 4 or 5 minutes.


You should have received a complete slide manual which illustrates the slideout motor etc. and has some good pictures. Here it is if you didn't get yours.
