Troubleshooting Slide-Out that Activates when Jacking Up a Trailer

Question:

I have a 2017 forest river and when I pull in my slides they will relax and come back a little bit and when I rise up the jacks it will push the slides back out

From the sounds of the issue, it is possible that you have bad solenoids on your hydraulics that are pushing hydraulic fluid through when they shouldn't be active. This can be a sign that the mechanism needs replaced.

If your 2017 Forest River has the common Lippert Trimbetta model slideout system, the replacement you need is the Lippert Replacement Hydraulic Power Unit with 2-Quart Pump Reservoir Kit for RV Slide-Out IRC System # LC141111.
