    Default Slide Problem Crap !

    I hesitate to even post this, cause I know of a 1/2 dozen guys that will just Laugh and "SAY I TOLD YOU SO".

    My slide wouldn't go out last night, when I went to pick up the bus after having some new A/V equipment upgrade put into the bus. But that wasn't the worst problem. The worst problem was, Peg went with me to pick it up and the slide wouldn't go out.
    I always check things like the slide goes in/out, Curtains work and go up/down, tires aren't flat, when I have anyone do anything on the bus, and nothing has been stolen out of one of my bays ?

    So the 24 hour Prevost tech was very helpful ( 9:00pm) but couldn't solve the slide issue, and it is getting past Peg's bed time, so we just take it home and put it away for the night.

    This morning I call Bill Jensen and he asks me several questions about what I have and haven't tried so far, and then proceeds to tell me how to cross jump a vacuum switch to see if it is a bad switch in the slide out mechanism, that won't allow the slide out.

    After repeating over the phone the process, at least twice to me, ( you know cause I am illiterate about my bus ) and I want to be sure I don't screw something else up while trying to fix this issue... It works. I mean what Bill told me to do works, and I now know what part to order. I had plans to drive back to Dallas Prevost to have them figure out the fix, but Now I am just waiting for the part to come in, and I will fix it myself.

    So after spending about 45 minutes on the phone with Bill Jensen, and him walking me through what to do, I am very happy and want to Thank Bill Jensen personally for all his efforts.
    I removed the wire in the picture to make a jumper to the connected wire.

    Sorry for the long post
