' Ok now I need some help. Does any one have any knowledge about the bedroom slide motor mechanism. Mine has a difficult time pushing slide out and pulling it in. Near as I can tell it is an adjustment related to the motor assembly. It is not the slide itself. 
Slide was out and could not bring it in. Fussed a bit with motor assembly and finally it slowly brought slide in. It draws a lot of power at this point of Mal adjustment.

'Bill, I’m probably talking to the choir saying this, but are you certain your batteries and connections are all good? Sometimes it’s the simple things that bite us. R/Willie, Connie is ‘95 Continental, 8.3L, Ally 6spd Connie doesn’t have a slide, but my HR Savoy 5th wheel does.

'Bill,
Is this on the 1999 or the 2001 Z?

'Bill Edwards,
I really don't have any experience with the bedroom slide, as mine has never given me trouble, but if the motor can be disassembled, you might check the brushes.  I got stuck out on the river last week with a boat that abruptly would not start. I pulled the starter off yesterday and the brushes were like new, but stuck in their holders thanks to dried out grease and corrosion.  The starter had been slow, like my battery was weak, but battery voltage was good.  The boat is a 2001, so age wise it is comparable to a 2000/2001 motorhome, only with a hot AND damp environment.

' Bob, thanks for the suggestion, going after it this PM. It is the bedroom slide

'Bill,
I will be across town working on my coach off and on this week if you need me to check out anything or take a picture of the slide mechanism.  I have a pair of Koni's to put on the front (the preferred P/N) and a brand spanking new stud extender and jam nut for my right front wheel simulator.  I guess life is getting pretty dull when a guy can get excited about getting a big nut in the mail.  We're getting prepped up for the Talladega infield next month.

'Attachments :I get it, Bob... I'm always excited to have diagnosed a problem, then have the fix in hand. Also, you and I are just a stones throw from one another, so hope we meet up one day.
