Expert Answers about Jayco RV Slide Out Parts


  • Can Slide Be Out When Replacing Motor and How to Test Slide Out Motor
  • Hey Tom, thanks for reaching out! Yes, your slide can be out when you're replacing the motor. To test your current motor you'll just need to swap the polarity to see if it runs. If it doesn't run then you need the Replacement Motor # LC125802 (make sure that 18:1 gear ratio is correct though if your slide uses 2 motors), but if it does run then that means you have bad wiring somewhere that needs to be fixed.

  • Does An RV Fireplace Slide Out Safety Switch Have To Be Connected For The Fireplace To Work
  • Hi Jacob, The Furrion Electric RV Fireplace with Crystals # FF30SC15ABL is an optional safety measure that can shut the fireplace off in the event that the slide out is retracted in to the stored position. It shouldn't affect the functionality of the fireplace when not connected. If you're having issues the display will typically flash a code so that you can fix the issue. Is yours showing any kind of code? If not the main troubleshooting steps are to remove the unit from the cutout...

  • How to Fix "SH" Code on Electric Trailer Brake Controller
  • Hey Dominick, thanks for reaching out! The Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 showing the "SH" code does refer to a short like you mentioned. The connections that you've made to your truck might be solid but you'll need to check the ground connection which is tied to that white wire - especially on an older vehicle like what you have. Make sure that white wire is grounded to a clean bare-metal surface and that nothing is loose. You should be able to mess with some of the settings and test for...

  • Troubleshooting Control Module and Motor for a Lippert Tread Lite RV Step
  • The best way to test this out is by applying 12V power to the motor directly so you can see if it operates correctly outside of the control module (see attached). If everything works properly when you've bypassed the control module then you'll need to replace that with part # LC334850, otherwise the issue would be the motor which you can replace with part # LC183058.

  • Troubleshooting A Non-Working Lift Motor On A Fan-Tastic RV Roof Vent
  • Hey John, If you're testing the wiring and there's power getting to the lift motor when the switch is in the off position then you either have a wiring issue or the vent is getting power from somewhere else. With the light going out immediately it sounds like it could be shorting out. What voltage are you reading when you test the power? The lift motor could be going out but the power issues you're describing could be the reason why so I would verify that you're getting a constant 12...

  • Troubleshooting Flickering Passenger Side Brake Light On A 2017 Ford Explorer
  • Hey Tim, I am happy to try to help you get to the bottom of it. While there are a few things that could cause the brake light to flicker, the most common cause is a short somewhere on the brake light circuit. Since the diodes were replaced and it did not fix the problem, a short would explain the issue. Your best bet would be for you (or your mechanic) to inspect the diode wiring harness, as well as the vehicles tail light circuits and look for any frayed or damaged wire that could be causing...

  • Troubleshooting A MaxxAir MaxxFan 7500 That's Running And Not Responding To Buttons Or Remote
  • Hey Sam, Typically if an RV vent fan is having issues it's going to be caused by your power and ground or a faulty circuit board. With yours running full blast randomly and the buttons not working the power most likely isn't the issue but it wouldn't hurt to check the voltage running to the power wire with a multimeter # PT89ZR to see if you're at 12 volts or if you're getting less or more, causing an issue for the circuit board. You should also verify that you have a good ground connection....

  • Troubleshooting Intermittent Trailer Disconnected Message When Towing
  • Hey Bill thanks for your question. Like you said there are several things that can cause an intermittent trailer disconnected message. The most common cause is a rusty or corroded trailer connector. Go ahead and inspect the trailers 7-way plug. If there is noticeable rust or corrosion it will need to be replaced with something like the 7-Way Round RV Style Trailer Connector # A7WCB. I suggest using a bit of Dielectric Grease # 11755 on the trailer plug and the vehicles 7-way. It is ok...
