    Oh yeah and on my refrigerator issue where it runs constantly, getting a new one of those as well. And also it's not in stock so I have no ETA on that one either

    Looks like I'm not camping until the fall
    So sorry to hear that. Hopefully, your parts will come in sooner so you can enjoy your rig.

    I just took the free training. Thanks for posting that. Very useful knowledge to keep someone from getting stuck camping with slide issues.

    My 22mle is going back to the dealer, 4th time for the slide. I am so disappointed in the slide. It works, then doesn't. They fix, it works, then stops. Slide worked flawlessly the other day. 3 times out and in. Tried a few days later, mind you the trailer hasn't moved, the slide wouldn't work. It would start going out then one side would stop. So frustrating. I am hoping they can figure it out and fix it.

    I purchased a new 226RK. One slide……
    First trip the slide stared chewing up tracks and drove home 2000 miles without ability to open slide and bottom out about 3-4 inches…. Now the wait for replacement parts and then the decision to trade at a loss or hope they fix properly and issue does not reappear again……

    How many times have you opened and closed it prior to this trip?

    Are you holding the slide button until all slide movements and noise is done?

    We joined the group of failed Schwintek's right after buying our new 2022 2400BH....2nd time we put it in ever it tore a hole in the floor....(I took the online lippert course before we even bought the trailer) and followed it all to the last instruction and still a complete failure. We've been waiting all season for someone to look at it and now that they did, it took 3 weeks for a GD approval and they tell me parts are backordered so there is "no known date of repair". Tech who looked at it said that it was a mess and that he could almost be full time on just these terrible slides.
