Bunk slide

1st trip with new to us 5er, all went well till we got home and tried to put out slides to empty. Living slide and bedroom slide, no problem, centre bunk slide will not move. The motor sounds but slide won't move. Tried giving a little push, tried in a little to help catch, checked underneath, all seems good. The other two slides have access holes for manual operation but can't find access for centre bunk slide. Looking for suggestions on what to do and why this happened. Cruiser 32BL 2011
Thanks in advance.

Is there possibly a drawer or door that could block slide from opening?

Okay I have that model, Their is a hole next to the entry steps about one foot away. that is for the bunkroom. Put your speed wrench in and turn it till it comes in.

The only hole I see is about a foot and and a half from the door towards the back of the trailer, I tried that hole, it is for the living slide. There is another hole about eye level towards the front which I assume is the bedroom slide, but where the bunk slide pole is on the frame one foot in front of entrance door the facia comes down and around to match the rest of the bottom of the trailer, no access and the speed wrench would have to be used sideways but the pipe comes out straight.
Thank you for your help

Lovetotow,

Have you gotten your slide to work? If not, I would be glad to get your contact information over to someone that will be able to help you and guide you through what needs to be done.

Hope everything worked out for you and I am sorry that this happened. Luckily, it was at the end, but still unfortunate.

Please let me know if I can be to any assistance.

-Taylor

That one toward the from should bring in the Bunk room. The Bedroom slide is done inside by lefting up the Mattress plat and useing a wrench

Thanks for the help, Frank. Tried the little hole upfront, that is the front landing gear so reading between the lines I went in and lifted the bunk bed, there is a board covering a flat box, I will have to wait till the day time to open it and maybe that is my access, like the main bedroom slide, here's hoping.

I have a hole in the sideing not too far from the steps, I wonder if some body work was done on it and they forgot to drill the hole. Body work can come from a tire blow out. can run as much as 7,000 to get it repaired. Do not ask why
