Bedroom slide

Yahoo Message Number: 10582
We have a 2002 Allure. This information is for anyone that has had their bedroom slide taken out to take care of the electrolysis problem or for any other reason. We had the electrolysis problem taken care of at the CC factory last August. Up to that time both our slides worked perfectly. After CC took them out we had a water leak in the galley slide and the bedroom slide come off the rail.
Both are fixed now (fingers crossed), but the experience with the bedroom was exciting! As I was outside putting up hoses etc, I heard my wife scream for me and looked around and could see the bedroom side tilting. My wife says the bed was heading towards the ceiling.
We took the bed apart and saw two screws and 2 nuts on the floor and two bolts completely sheared off. Because two screws had come off the pressure from the hydraulics sheared the others. With nothing holding the slide, it comes off the rail. All of this was caused by the fact that when CC put the slide back after the electrolysis repair they failed to put in any lock washers and after almost 9 months of use they finally were loose enough to cause this problem.
So, if you have had the bedroom slide taken out for any reason check to make sure there are lock washers.

By master bedroom slide hesitates on going out. I can finally get it out. No problem in coming in. Could it be a bad switch? Any ideas?

ours did the same thing. We found the connection under the slide was not plugged in all the way which caused an intermittent problem.
