C-616153 Report post Posted April 27, 2023 We have a 2021 Venture Stratus SR261VRL and our slide quit working this morning. We're on a trip and today when we tried to retract our slide it ran for a few seconds and then stopped. Nothing happens when you push the slide switch in either direction - it's like it has no power. I checked the 15 amp fuse for the slide and it was okay. We were able to retract the slide manually so mechanically it's functional. I was told that there might be another type of fuse or circuit up near the 12-volt power disconnect switch on the trailer tongue area. I've attached a photo of an area next to the disconnect switch with a plastic cover over it that I had to remove to access it. As you can see, several wires attach to an electrical device but I'm not sure what it does. Maybe it's a fusible link of some type that has tripped or blown. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. We are already several states away from home and heading outbound. Hopefully, we can take care of this without having to cancel our trip and head back home to get it repaired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianbullock Report post Posted April 27, 2023 Sounds like a power issue. Do you have a battery disconnect switch somewhere? Is it possible that it was inadvertently turned on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those are automatic-reset circuit breakers, if you have 12V on both terminals of both circuit breakers they are OK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
