17MKE Schwintek slide system

**kjk2512** · 06-28-2021, 12:12 PM

I have a Schwintek slide system in my Imagine 17MKE. Does anyone know where the controller is located? I've looked all over the TT and can't seem to find it. Just want to be prepared in case the slide stops working so I can figure out how to get it back in.

Thanks,

I have a 22mle but I remember the guy at RV store telling me you can do it manually...seems like there is a hole to put a tool in or its under the slide. Maybe the crank for the stabilizer jacks?

Schwintek slides don’t have a manual crank

Our ‘21 17MKE has a manual crank, with the port at or just beneath the bottom of the slide. I don’t recall the slide brand.

Would love to see a pic of this

It doesn’t have one

Maybe later, as it’s in offsite storage.

Are you saying you have actually seen this or you were told this?

You're right. Imagine 17MKE Schwintek doesn't have a crank. I'll start tearing into it this weekend to locate the controller.

The crank on the 17MKE (under the slide) is for the spare tire.
