How To Manually Close an RV Slide-out | RV Troubleshooting

What happens if your slide-out won't retract normally? This is a concern for every camper and RVer, and we're here to teach you how to retract your slide if it gets stuck. The goal is to get your RV slide safely back into travel mode so you can head to a service center to have the issue diagnosed.

Ian Baker will show you how to manually operate an RV slide-out and provide some useful slide-out troubleshooting tips for rack-and-pinion, cable, and Schwintek (worm gear) slide systems.

Don't get stuck at the campsite! Watch and save this video to learn what to do if your slide fails. This manual procedure isn't recommended for extending a slide-out, only for retracting in an emergency scenario.

If these tips can't solve your issue, you can always consult with your nearest Camping World Service Center: https://rv.campingworld.com/rv-servic...
