vista 26P slide out problem

Purchased a 2012 vista 26p. Took it for a test drive last fall, everything worked just fine. We decide to go for a week long trip. Setup the first night and the front dinette slide does not work!!! When you push the slide out button, the front moves three or four inches but the rear does not move at all. Any suggestions?

Thank You,

Bob

There are no locks, I have had it out several times. All the breakers and fuses seem to be fine.

Check the rear electric motor for a loose plug.

x-2 This was going to be the next suggestion. Ours has two motors and it sounds like one is not operating..

Crawled under it, checked the wires,breakers and fuses. Guess the motor is just bad!!! Not as much room with it in, but still much more room than the old one. Thanks for the suggestions.

Our slide on the 2012 "ground" its way out for our maiden voyage up into Canada. Came back to dealer - he had to order a "boatload" of parts to repair it! Lots of pieces were not installed correctly.

Turned out the rear motor was shot. Powergear replaced it under warranty. Thanks for all your help.
