We had problem with ours getting out of sync, has 2 electric motors out of sync due to not fully letting side go all the way out. Had to do manual override.
GD design customer service said to always extend slide all the way and hold button for another 10 to 15 seconds after it stopped. We do this and have never had another problem. Also do this when retracting slide, hold that button a few extra seconds after it stops. Click on picture to enlarge.

Buckskin, could you post a link to this page? Or take a screen shot of the whole page? I could have used it last February when my slide stuck open. I was aware of the reset on the controller but could have used a reference. I plan to download it to my phone for easy access, I'm sure others would appreciate it as well. Thanks

There are several links to trouble shooting slides, below is one:

Google to find one you need.

I requested this thread be made a sticky at the top of the page.

Actually there is already a sticky referencing the Lippert web site for Schwintek.

It's here.....

Thanks. We found it behind the fuse panel. Really hard to get to. Tried resynch today but didn't work. Manual override got it out - although it was uneven. Hoping manual override gets us through this trip for now- 2 more weeks on the road! Thanks for your reply- good luck with yours!

Hum, I'm not sure that override was meant to be used on a regular basis. It's mostly design to get you out of a bind. If it went out crooked, try the realignment process.
