Tiffin Phaeton 2010 Front Driver side slide

Recommended Posts

When trying to close the front driver side slide on 2010 Phaeton, at first heard a pop sound, then left side was moving that has refrigerator on it but the sofa side was not. Reversed action and the refrigerator side went back to fully open, then tried again and neither side moved at all, can hear it trying to move.

Look above the batteries in the battery compartment.  You'll see a square tube coming from the compartment behind it and attached to a gear driven drive for that side of the slide.  Either the tube stripped on the gear assembly connection or gears broke off of the drive assembly.  The tube can be repaired by cutting the damaged end off and drilling a new hole.  The tube telescopes in to another square tube in the other compartment and can extend to compensate for the length cut off.  If it's the gear teeth, the unit needs to be replaced and Tiffin has it for about $75 as I recall.  Fairly easy to replace, but you may want to have a technician do it.  You'll need to syncronize the slide sides after that, but again, not too difficult.  Good luck....
