I’m sure, even with proper lubrication and leveling before extending, a drive motor is going to fail. I learned a lot about the Schwintek slide out system from your articles the last two days in the RV Travel newsletter.

Here is a diagram from the owner’s manual. There is a small screw that needs to be removed from the outside. Run the room out about 2″-3” and then you will have access to it and stabilize the room. Older models need to be notched with a grinder or reciprocating saw. Newer models have a notch in the metal trim that runs along the side so there is access to the motor. You will need to pull back the outer trim and the rubber seal or flap to get to them.


The motors are on each side of the slide room on the top portion even with the rail accessible from the inside.
